Food Strolling
Marion Square, Farmer's Market, Charleston, S.C.
I had every intention of photographing the AIDS Walk this morning and set my alarm (eeeew....alarms on the weekend) accordingly. I grabbed the camera and flash card I used last night only to discover the dreaded "unable to format card" message. Luckily there were other photographers to cover the event so I slipped home and did my walk-about town happily landing in Marion Square in time to be handed a warm bowl of the most delicious bread pudding.
Sarah O'Kelly from the Glass Onion and farmer Celeste Albers had just done a cooking demonstration as part of Les Dames d’Escoffier International and were ready to serve. Thanks ladies! It was amazing.
You can see why I have to walk so much. If I am going to have delicious treats handed to me as I march through town I'd better add another mile or two to my routine hike.
Walking on I saw this line up winding around the yard at Gaillard waiting to get in to the Whale of a Sale. I decided to pass on that event.
I went to Whale of a Sale once - it was years ago at the Port Authority. You could barely move and most of the stuff you couldn't see because there were so many people. Haven't been since!
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing years ago. Walked in walked out. I have no interest in crowd squishing anymore.
ReplyDeleteI suspect I wouls require several more miles with treats of that nature!!
