Yes, these wonderful markets have more than food but it is difficult not to snap pictures of the mouthwatering morsels.  I was tempted to grab a handful of these olives when no one was looking. 

I was surprised that these brussel sprouts looked so appealing to me  (I am not a fan of the brussel sprout but will have to try these French beauties).

The markets are "chock full" of all kinds of goodies.  Do you need a scarf?  Look at all these delicious colors.......
Picture
How about a red hat?  Oh, if only I could look so sheek in this hat.......
Picture
How about a pair of shoes to finish off your new look?  (I hope you have tiny feet because the shoes run very small).

Let's head into the kitchen now.  Do you need some pots and pans?  They've got them, although most of the lids are sold seperately.  I don't get it either.  Expect to spend a "wad" on kitchen supplies. 
Picture
We can't forget a lovely tablecloth.  I have noticed that the bright yellows and blues that we equate to French style are being replaced by creamy whites, taupes and greys. 
Picture
Since we are working in the kitchen, let's grab something to eat.......
Picture
I'll let you digest this and we will continue our little tour tomorrow.  Until then, have a wonderful day......

There is something about the food at these open air markets. The photographs are great but even these photographs cannot convey the sound and aromna! It is truly amazing!

I didn't realize they sold so many different things at the open markets. Is this more for tourists, or do the neighbors shop there regularly?

Your pictures are great.
