plump perfection.






oh the berkeley bowl. where local produce is abundant. and mindblowing. i will not say i wasn't warned. i was. in fact, the plum phenomenon that is upon us, i was specifically told about in late june by a friend who had learned of my upcoming relocation from brooklyn to the bay. he told me i would have to go to berkeley bowl. and that the produce section would only have things fresh and in season and that, for instance, at plum time there would be aisles of more varieties of plums than i could imagine. and wouldn't you know, here i am, it is plum season, and berkeley bowl has aisles and aisles of plums and pluots of more varieties than i could imagine. varieties i have never heard of before. from dapple dandy to dinosaur egg to red rose and dozens in between. aren't they purty?
