Party in Bridgehampton

I had heard that there was a wood-burning pizza oven at the Bridgehampton Farmer's Market, and today I went over to check it out. What a festive place! Maybe because the market is open on Friday afternoons between 3 and 6:30, it has a unique party atmosphere. Wolffer wine is being poured, pizza is being eaten. Almost as soon as I got out of my car, a nice young man offered me some freshly grilled yellow squash as an appetizer.

Anxiously Awaiting Summer

I've been feeling almost anxious (if you're a local you know what I mean) about the coming holiday weekend. Will I be able to get all of my errands done before the crowds arrive? In my travels today, I saw signs of life, but no actual produce yet, at Sag Harbor's newest farm stand, Serene Green. And I'll have to wait until Friday, like everyone else, to confirm the rumor that there will be a mobile wood-burning pizza oven at the Bridgehampton Farmer's Market. To calm myself down, I stopped by Long Beach, where some smart and lucky people were getting a jump on summer, to admire the view and take a few deep breaths of salty sea air.
