Sunday Funday

It is officially, finally fall here in D.C. I've been looking forward to watching the leaves change pretty much since I moved here and this weekend, it seemed that overnight the city's trees became alive with color. I'm having to hold myself back from taking my camera everywhere with me and snapping shots of the fall foliage. Nothing says Florida freak/tourist like that right? But since I haven't truly experienced a real fall since we moved to Florida from North Carolina 10 years ago, I'm relishing in this breathtaking scenery.

Today, as the usual Sunday tradition goes, I trekked up to Eastern Market and returned with some delightful bounty. One of my favorite things about the market is the samples. You can go up and down the farmer's market aisles trying all different types of fresh fruits and vegetables and let me tell you, they're all amazing. This week I fell in love with the honeycrisp apples. Seriously, store-bought apples will never compare. And they're huge! I also returned with my weekly allotment of fresh flowers for the apartment. Aren't they gorgeous?



This picture might not do them justice, but they're the biggest apples I've ever seen!
