Especially now because it's the rainy season here. It's that much harder to get out of bed. There's no better time to get cozy between the sheets than when the rain is pounding on the roof right? :)christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170119649259510290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10486650.post-11544136091901219112007-08-08T10:24:00.000+08:002007-08-08T10:24:00.000+08:00I agree, Christine...sleeping late is such a tempt...I agree, Christine...sleeping late is such a temptation when its an option. Shopping in any form usually has the power to get me out the door. :-) And a drive through organic market sounds like fun shopping!Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00114357903650884040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10486650.post-80235031992253653992007-08-07T21:50:00.000+08:002007-08-07T21:50:00.000+08:00Yup.

Especially when you're there near lunch time when more people arrive to eat there. Hey, maybe, we should start a petition on the 3-day weekend? ;)<BR/><BR/>GUS, that would surely do wonders for domestic travel! Imagine a 3-day weekend every week? Sigh...we can only hope. :) Slackerday. :)<BR/><BR/>Candishh really?!

Maybe if I could only manage to go earlier, which is next to impossible. It's a weekend so it's the perfect excuse to stay a bit longer between the sheets :)<BR/><BR/>Amen on your suggestion for a 3-day weekend!!ScroochChronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08236174046250105313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10486650.post-20058014307007165642007-08-07T15:16:00.000+08:002007-08-07T15:16:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by the author.ScroochChronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08236174046250105313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10486650.post-59412507511713990132007-08-06T23:13:00.000+08:002007-08-06T23:13:00.000+08:00Lydia, I hope so.

It's only been in existence since about late February or early March and there's already more items available now than there was then. :)<BR/><BR/>Mila, yes a weekly struggle! The market is actually open at 6 am, but stays open until 4. Lots of time to catch up. :)<BR/><BR/>Hey Jo-jo! Yup, and not too far from you either.

I remember when they had the first market that eventually moved to Legaspi st.<BR/><BR/>I used to be able to get rock lobster tails there... Can you imagine? <BR/><BR/>I'm glad to see more and more people back home are turning to organics or just fresh produce, in general.

As soon as I get there, I'm glad I made the trip. Your little drive-up market looks great, and I'm sure with the support of people like you who get up early to be there, that it will grow.Lydia (The Perfect Pantry)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18005372315838352874noreply@blogger.com
