It was pretty cool.
Anyways, I've been super busy, so I decided to take this morning as a 'mental health half-day'. Tony and I went to the public market and had a blast. Not only did I spend 20 bucks total, I got enough food for the week with it too (if I also count the food I already had at home)!
3 potato pancakes, cup of coffee, and tip for our favorite waitress - $7
One socialist newspaper (for curiosity's sake) - $1
3 artichokes - $1
6 zucchinis - $2
Mushrooms - $2
1 lint roller (for my suit jacket) - $1
Smoked mackerel (whole) - $6 (yes, it's not vegan, but Tony and Mike and I split it three ways and I was craving it big time)
The smoked fish looked amazing when we passed by it, and Tony had never had it. So, I felt the need to teach him about smoked fish (other than salmon). We boiled some potatoes, ripped the fish into pieces, and took it out to his balcony, chatting and tearing up the pieces with our fingers. Mike came out and joined us for a bit (he had never had smoked mackerel either), and then he went to work.
And yes, we used to Socialist Worker as our napkin because the best way to eat smoked fish is on a newspaper using your fingers.
I'm gonna get to work now - but ya'll have a great day!
