Apricot Lovin'

Today's nosh is brought to you by the letter 'A'. That's right, the first blushing apricots of the season have arrived at my favorite farmers' market, Thursdays at Crocker Galleria. http://www.localharvest.org/farmers-markets/M9080

Oh sure, I knew about the strawberries and asparagus, and there's a special place in my heart for the guy who hands out fat Medjool dates like he's doling out diamonds. But I was surprised to see the little round fruits, mottled a bit but looking like they just fell from someone's backyard tree into the basket that brought them here.

And they are so good. The taste has a hint of rose petal to it. Sweet but slightly tart. I had three for dessert tonite, so Yay For A.
