Market Report: L'viv, March 27, 2015


I'm back in L'viv for a month, working as a Fulbright Specialist, but happy that it also provides me some time to visit markets, particularly as Easter approaches.  A quick trip today, to the market near St. George's Cathedral, showed both the end of winter and the approach of spring (much further along here than in upstate New York).  Enjoy!

Above, and below, pickles of all sorts.



And more remnants of winter:  dried beans and nuts;  potatoes and cabbage, the staples; a dried mushroom seller, and in the last photo, a couple cups of somewhat unidentifiable dried something.  Guesses anyone?





And then the signs of spring:  eggs, perhaps soon to be decorated; the serious business of seed buying, honey from Ternopil; and a big bunch of daffodils!
