Summer’s greatest hits: Tomatoes, Beans and Corn

Now’s the time for a mess of beans served with new potatoes (don’t forget the bacon).

It seems that the height of market season always coincides with July fireworks. And so it is this week when the farmer’s markets and produce auctions are bustling with anxious buyers purchasing excellent farmer grown vegetables. I got a little delirious today surveying the bounty: wild blackberries, incredible half runner and Roma beans, sweet Bodacious (my favorite, a yellow variety) and Temptation bicolor corn with sweetness in every kernel.
