The remaining vendors that continue to sell at the Midtown Farmers' Market are Bost Farm, Brown Family Dairy and the Jumbo Gulf Shrimp vendor (pictured above). I wanted to buy something from this seafood vendor, and I was so thrilled to be able to purchase some crabmeat! (It was delish!) They also sell boiled gulf shrimp, heads on shrimp and peeled shrimp, and shucked oysters.
I'm more of a Chesapeake Bay seafood kind of gal, but gulf crab is also delicious.
Brown Family Dairy eggs and gulf crabmeat -
There is nothing I love more than a fantastic crab cake...
I [heart] my Green Pans. If you haven't gotten rid of all of your old pans to switch to these, I highly recommend doing so. They are great pans, they cook fast with or without oil and are so easy to clean!
GreenPan is a Belgian cookware manufacturer which is the first to launch PTFE free non-stick cookware.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is most well known by the DuPont brand name Teflon, and is used in many types of cookware pans, but it also has numerous other applications. The EPA's scientific advisory board decided in 2005 that PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic acid) — a chemical compound used to make Teflon—is a "likely carcinogen." Currently this chemical is not regulated by the EPA but can be found in all of our old non-stick pots and pans. Yikes!

Bon appetit and thanks to the Midtown Farmers' Market for all of their lovely produce! They have a new website that they are having trouble with, but they should have it running correctly by next season. They also have a weekly e-mail updating customers about the vendors, produce and entertainment that will be at the market each week. To get on their e-mailing list for next season (starting in April 2010), contact Errol Castens errol.castens@djournal.com.
