Today's catch

There's a farmers' market in my town every Monday. The past few years it's been mostly corn and zucchini, so I haven't gone at all this year, but since there was nothing on the docket today, I figured it would be nice to get out. What a surprise! There were tons of different veggies, fruits, baked goods and-- get this-- clams! Yes, they were selling little necks, cherry stones and quohogs. I just love that. I thought about getting some for the next recipe challenge, but I've only worked with clams once before and I was too daunted. But it just makes me laugh that there's shellfish at a New England farmers' market.
I ended up getting some corn, yellow squash, Bugs Bunny-type carrots, basil (which it kills me to buy, since I usually grow bushels of it myself, but not this year!), and a bumbleberry pie. I'm not sure what I'm going to make for dinner yet, but I've got some ideas swirling around in my head.
