It is more than two weeks that 
The good thing about places that attract a lot of tourists is that you can be with a camera on your hand practically everywhere and no-one will look you as if you are doing something weird. So along with the shopping I kept taking pictures the whole time I was there!
There are still plenty of the winter vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower but the highlight of the days are the artichokes (first picture). I was impressed to see that there was the option to buy them peeled and in fact the ladies that were peeling them were more than busy!
Vine leaves are also a seasonal thing. We cook them stuffed with rice (the dish is called dolmades) and they are good for it only in the spring, when they are fresh and tender. It is also common to boil them slightly and freeze them. That way we can cook them all the months of the summer to come.
And I will end with something completely irrelevant. Do you know the American Samoa?
Myself I know nothing about that small complex of islands in the Pacific ocean apart from the fact that they are the last place on earth that the new day is coming. Meaning that even though it is now Saturday morning in Greece, in American Samoa it is still Friday evening. So with no further delay I can dedicate this post to #MarketFriday, initiated by 
Sorry Denise for the delay, I hope you'll enjoy it :)
Have a lovely weekend!
All the pictures and the words are mine.
