Today as I passed through the Farmers' market, I was spellbound by the brilliant purple and orange cauliflower. I know it's all a result of cross-breeding and we pesky humans messing with nature - but wow. You could have made edible jewelry fit for a queen out of this stuff. It was so pretty that I really wanted to buy some...but in the end settled for the plain ole' white variety (which was more affordable).

I have a potluck event next week (and you're all invited!) and I'm thinking I might have to splurge on a melange of bright brassica.

Mmmm...food art.
