The term farmers market should be used very loosely in this instance. It was more of an artisanal market, but since I was expecting produce, I was a little disappointed. But lucky for me, there was a stand filled with cupcakes!
Thankful Cupcakes had a large variety of cupcakes and I opted for a seasonal flavor: caramel apple. Each cupcake is $4.
I feel bad being overly critical of mom & pop operations. Let's just say I wasn't able to finish the cupcake. It did have some good bites when I got bits of apple chunks in the cake.
Aside from the stroll through the market, I also took a jaunt to a eccentric shop nearby filled with oddities, taxidermy and basically stuff from nightmares (ie. vintage ouija boards, vampire babies, ventriloquist dummies). The Wilde Collection opened its doors a year ago in the Heights and it was a fun/interesting way to explore the quirky side of my neighborhood.
