25 August 2009 - The Roughty Fruit King
A long time fixture of the English Market in Cork is this fruit stall run by M F Murphy.
2 December 2008 - Chili Time
Chili peppers on sale in the market in Maidenhead in the UK about 3 weeks ago. It wasn’t quite cold enough that I was tempted to buy some and chew them raw, but if it was now I’d think about it. It’s freezing out!
27 October 2008 - Pumpkins For Sale
Pumpkins for sale in the local store in Breckenridge, Colorado. I post this today because Dunnes Stores are selling pumpkins and they’re only half the size of the large pumpkins pictured here!
Does anyone actually eat pumpkins? They’re a new sight in Irish shops, and are only ever for sale in the large chains around Halloween.

Fruit and veg on display in a shop in the English Market, Cork.
18 November 2006 - Glistening Blackberries
Blackberries glisten in the bright sun of an August afternoon in Co. Cork.
I love blackberry jam, blackberry tarts, blackberry crumble. I don’t like picking the fruit, but I have many childhood memories of wandering country lanes with my family looking for the best fruit for my mother to make delicious jam.
Nowadays, you can buy a carton of blackberries in M&S cheaply. Oh how times have moved on.
