Apples and Dogs and Chairs Oh! Snow!

January 27, 2011 by Robin Plaskoff Horton

Snow didn’t keep vendors or me away from the Union Square Green Market yesterday in New York City.

Although he complained of freezing, the apple vendor didn’t seem to mind that his fruit was covered with snow…I know it’s not good to refrigerate apples so I wondered if it affected their flavor.

On the Home Front

So much snow fell last night that our Adirondack chair now looks like an overstuffed chair…

You really could sink into it.

Not my real dogs, but these Dachshund boot scrapers covered in snow kinda look like the real thing…

Pray for warm weather.

Come to La Marqueta (115th & Park Ave). Our farmer’s market is open 6 days a week and is weatherproof! I admit the picture looks great though. I wonder how the apples tasted.
