Bitter melons from both China and India are not shaped like melons that I am familiar with. But then again, melons I'm familiar with are not bitter.
Another item I wasn't familiar with was lemon plums. Any one have any ideas?
Nothing unusual here. Just the beauty of a bakery counter.
And a shot of the plants.
Prices at Russo's overall seemed reasonable. I was a bit surprised that they didn't have more local produce but it's probably still early for New England grown produce. Russo's is a bit of a drive for me so it won't be a weekly trip but will definitely be back. We went at 11 am on Saturday which added to the overwhelmed feeling I had. Shoppers, as crowded as it was, were polite. Staff was very helpful. They had to go to the back to get me some sorrel. More on that after I make the potato sorrel soup that I have been dying to try for several years but for the fact that I could never find sorrel.

I've been away awhile so catching up on my blog reading and when I first opened this up and saw some of the pics of the edibles...i thought you must have taken a trip somewhere abroad! (then of course I read the fine print of "products of the usa") No idea what to do with the lemon plums...but cool pictures!
