Jen and I just spent an entire morning perusing the new Whole Foods Market Newport Beach wonderland (the word market just doesn’t seem to do it justice) and WHOLEY MOLY, if it weren’t for a looming preschool pick-up, both of us could have spent the whole day there!
Upon entering the store we were greeted by an inviting rainbow of colorful, perfectly ripened produce, stands and stands of it. This might sound silly but it felt like happy food: Heirloom tomatoes, Bartlett pears, Honeycrisp apples, golden beets, turnips, endive, swiss chard, cabbage.
The care they put into their produce was subliminally saying: Eat these beautiful whole foods and you will feel happy.
It was a little bit of sensory overload because we wanted to take it all in and enjoy but we weren’t sure where to begin (in a good way).
We worked our way through the produce and noticed some…
