• I never got around to posting these pictures from my first-ever Farmer’s Market trip in June! It was absolutely beautiful and I’ve already posted about Lavender Moon Cupcakery, Chateau Gateau, and Buzz Bakery. The market is on the small side in terms of produce and craft options, but I love the little town of Alexandria so much that I think it’s worth it. The fresh squeezed orange juice we had at the market (see below) was pricey and we had to wait, but it was seriously one of the best orange juice experiences I’ve ever had. This stuff is fresh-squeezed (which is why we had to wait).

    There are many great restaurants and shop in and around Old Town, and you can even take the ferry boat from here to DC or Maryland. I’ve eaten at Eamonn’s and Rustico, but haven’t posted about them yet. Eamonn’s is a great place to visit, like the Five Guys of fish n’ chips. Take your food down to the water and eat al fresco or pack a picnic~
