Monday Mischief-Union Square Holiday Market Foodie Adventure

On Sunday we packed up Weasley to go to the Union Square Holiday Market that pops up every November and December.   Its an expanded version of the regular Farmer's Market with lots of nice shops and tasty foods.

Weasley is such a calm commuter now that he stayed perfectly quiet in his stroller on the crowded path train:

The market was all decorated for Christmas Weasley posed by the trees and listened to the Carolers

It was very crowded and filled with plenty of interesting smells.

We saw a couple of dogs at the market, including this cute Frenchie named Leo.

There was a stand of fancy loose teas, they must have had about 60 different kinds.

There was some nice food too, we tried a feta stuffed  pretzel from Sigmund's Pretzels,

an Earl Grey Macaron from a stand whose name I forgot (the french cookie kind not Macaroons which are those coconut things) that really did taste like Earl Grey tea , Captain Picard's favorite  and mine too,

 a waffle from the Waffles and Dinges Cart, it was the one that won the Food Network Throw down from Bobby Flay,

 and best of all a delicious French Style Hot Chocolate from No Chewing Allowed, they put a truffle at the bottom 

and it comes in a cute cup.   Its thick and rich, well worth the five dollars.


There were a lot of clothing and art stands and some really cute wool ornaments, but it was so crowded I couldn't get a good picture.

My favorite stand was Hazel Village where they make these really cute stuffed dolls.  They can be monogramed and you can customize the outfits.  I was sorely tempted to buy one and took their card for future reference.

Weasley was very tired out when we got home, ready for a nap.
