Doug and I regularly purchase whole beef tongues when they are available at our farm-share pick up.  They cost us $2.00.  They’re not cured or cooked or anything, but that’s easy to fix.  And I whole lot less than $70.

At the artisans’ fair on the Vineyard, there was a photographer who had a picture of these beautiful multi-colored berries.  He said they are called porcelain berries, and they really do some in all these colors and they’re all over the island in the fall. Today, Doug and I spotted some right in Waltham.

We bought some purple long beans at the farmers’ market the other day.   They did not turn green upon cooking, which is what happens to the purple variety of regular green beans.  One regular green one did sneak into the bundle, though.
