Fulton Mall Farmer's Market

Today I got to go to the new farmer's market that is held on the Fulton Mall. It goes from 10am-12pm on Wednesdays and Fridays. I was very excited because this is actually a non-nap, non-obligated time in my schedule. I liked it. I parked down by Long's on Fulton and it a little bit of a walk (I could have parked closer). There weren't a lot of booths but they had grear deals.


Zucchini was only 50 cents a pound here and looked yummy. I got a few for us over here at the NerdFamily. Now, I will admit that this is one of my favorite stands over at the Fulton farmer's market too. I got green beans and eggplant here too.

Then look at these flowers! They are only $4 a bouquet. The Sunflowers were $3 a bunch. They also had sweet pea blossoms too!

These kind of deals you will not get at the Clovis Market. Go check it out and let me know what you think!

Small Town



Fresno and Clovis really are small towns. You end up knowing people everywhere and that is something I can't decide if I love or hate. I saw on Twitter Sierra Vista Mall denying any blame for making Justin Willis sick. I went to school with Justin so I had to check out this piece;).

Separately, if you want something to do this weekend go check out the Burger Flipping Contesting in Clovis tomorrow!

Funnel Cake/Lemonade Coupon

I got a great coupon from the Sierra Vista Mall's Twitter. It is for a free lemonade with the purchase of Funnel Cake Sticks at Hot Dog on a Stick. I didn't even know that I could get Funnel Cake Sticks!

$29.4 Million

That is what is costs to buy a school. That is in essence what the Jordan family has done. A family that has never been to CSU Fresno but know a retired professor decided to donate $29.4 million dollars to the Ag Sciences and Technology school. Now it is being renamed. Is it obvious to anyone else that this family/trust was just shopping for a legacy? Fresno State, I guess that this means we all know what you are and that we are just settling on a price.

The money will probably do some good (if we can keep it away from the lawsuit settlement payouts) but the whole thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Don't tell me this is how it is done because I don't care. I don't know why it bothers me so but it does.
