December 19th, 2010
Thank God it did not start raining until mid morning. I wanted to go by the Green Market. This is an open air market located at SE 4th Ave., 1/2 block south of Atlantic Avenue. You cannot miss it. I had been to the Green Market in the past but had not taken any pictures.
This Green Market is very similar to the Farmers’ Markets that take place during the summer months in the Delaware and Maryland beaches. It is going back to the basics; buy local and eat fresh.
The Green Market was started in 1996 by the Community Redevelopment Agency. This is now their 15th season; their second edition of the Greenmarket Cookbook is now on sale. It is $14.95 plus $3.00 shipping and handling. Call Lori at 561-276-7511 to reserve your copy. You may also want to stop by the CRA office on 20 N Swinton Ave. and pick one up.
The Green Market is every Saturday from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. Do you need more info. or are interested in being a vendor? Then call Lori at 561-276-7511 or e-mail greenmarket@delraycra.org.
It was so nice to stroll up and down the street just checking everything out.
The first vendor I saw was selling seafood. Immediately the jumbo lump crabmeat got my eye. Of course, I ended up buying a pound. Actually, it was cheaper than at home. This vendor also had gorgeous stonecrab claws.
People were buying; I watched them interact with the vendors.
Between the music playing, the food cooking, the warm weather and a soft breeze, I think I caught myself smiling throughout my strolling.
      
Hey, you will get the chance to visit the Green Market if you are in Delray Beach every Saturday until the end of May.
Note: On Friday, 12/24, Christmas Eve, the Green Market will be open from 8 a.m. until 10 a.m., just so their loyal customers can pick up last minute items. There will be no street closing so all you have to do is pull up and buy your goodies.
Talk to you later…have a good one….

March 3rd, 2010
I can’t believe that Delray Beach was probably a place that was almost forgotten 20 years ago. Revitalization of this Village by the Sea has made it one of the most vibrant and dynamic beach towns in all of the Southeast areas of South Florida. Restaurants, shops and an architecture that mixes history and Mediterranean styles abound. Walking, jogging and biking make it the perfect place to vacation. Let’s not forget those unobstructed beaches; no buildings; just the seagrapes outlining the sand.
Well, if you have visited Florida this year, you would have noticed that people have been wearing jackets for a long time. It has been cold; not just chilly.
Even if it is cold or hot, Delray Beach is known for its festivals, arts and outdoor events. Every week-end there is something going on.
This past week-end was no different so, off I went with Maru and Lolo. Showing my cousins the town was fun.
The Green Market was one of the places we hit. It is now located on SE 4th Ave. just south of Atlantic. This Green Market happens every Saturday from 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. Local food, music, baked goods, produce and flowers take up this part of SE 4th Ave. This coming Saturday, the 6th, there is even a Chili Cook-off. Be ready because the aroma will be calling you over.
   
The other day at the Green Market there was a company called Good Vibe Teas; premium organic specialties. I am not a tea drinker but I got the Chamomile Licorice Mint Loose Leaf Tea for my husband. This company has a tea or herbal infusion for everyone; young, old, female, those who are healthy, and for those who are healing. Their teas can stimulate your senses, energize, calm, comfort, warm, cool, satisfy, or change your mood. The tels. are 954-868-0783 or 888-868.4561. The website is www.goodvibeteas.com and the e-mail address is amanda@goodvibeteas.com. The Director of Operations is Amanda Capece. This company ships to anywhere in the coutry.
From the Green Market we kept on walking to Pineapple Grove. Pineapple Grove is located just off Atlantic Ave., on NE Second Ave. The name was given to this area for its history as a producer of pineapple in the early years of this century.
Pineapple Grove features and eclectic mix of cafes, boutiques, galleries and spas. In town living enhances this whole artistic district with tenants just having to come out of their buildings to find their gym, postal service, bookstores and everything for daily living just at their reach. Very popular street, indeed, and walking distance to Atlantic Ave.
We walked the length of the street with the cooking smells making us so hungry. Lots of vendors selling their wares from jewelry, flowers, handmade bags and pottery to freshly squeezed lemonade and funnel cakes. What we ended up getting, and it was delicious, was the Kennel Korn from the Kennel Korn Hut. It was lightly salted and sweetened, just like they advertised it. But, it was even better because it was warm. They did not have a business card but told me they had a website but I have not found it yet. They are always in Delray, at the art festivals and especially at the Delray Affair coming up next month.
I hope Fisher’s Popcorn, from Delaware, does not get jealous, but they shouldn’t because they have a special spot in my heart. It is amazing, as well. A post will come soon on this popcorn.
Anyway, if you are in the area, a few of the happenings are:
At the Cornell Museum of Art and American Culture, located on 51 N. Swinton Ave.:
