..in the downtown Park Blocks (between Salmon and Main.)

One of the nice side benefits to working from home on Wednesday mornings now is knowing I can swing by the market for lunch on my way to the office. So I waited in the loooonnnng line for a Salvador Molly’s chicken tamale, grabbed a vibrant bouquet of flowers, and nibbled on a chocolate levain roll from Pearl Bakery as I made my way back across the river.

Plenty of vendors had strawberries (including Hood berries), while I saw some amazing pencil-thin asparagus that I just didn’t have room to carry with me, alas.

And as you can see from the crowd queued up at Salvador Molly’s, I’m not the only one with the bright idea to take a lunch break downtown…
