My favorite breakfast item came from two hard-working guys from The Creperie spreading delicate crepe batter on a hot griddle, filling it with anything from Nutella and strawberries (my choice) to asparagus and cheese, and then rolling the whole shebang in paper cones.  Portable. Tasty. Warm.  A treat on the street!

Fabulous French confections from the The Creperie

In the spirit of drinking local, I lined up for a cup of Bear Basin Roast from a cheerful, albeit chilly, vendor from Long Valley Coffee based in McCall. Mmmm.  Rich, full-bodied, and my first cup of coffee with the word bear in the title!

Finally, I spied this happy, tattooed guy talking on his cellphone.  When I asked if I could take a picture, he gave me a thumbs up.  And then said, Have a good morning.  He smiled.  I smiled.  And we bridged the generation gap if only for a few seconds.  Made my day with a good morning start!

Nothing like a great smile to start your day!

P. S.  Want to see more pics of the Boise Farmers Market?  Come back for my next post.  There’s everything from gourd vendors to a balloon man and who knows what else!  You gotta get up on a Saturday and head to a farmers’ market near you.  I can almost guarantee a Good Morning.
