Market in Turkey.

I haven't shown you half the places I saw in Turkey yet. Got to blame the 'Lazy Bone'. 
We stopped at this huge covered market on the way to Ayvalik. It was unseasonably chilly- in fact it was chuffing cold.
Underwear, anyone? In this weather?? Thought not!
The produce was wonderful, varied and fresh. Cheap, too. And there was lots of dried fruit and spices for sale.
This woman was selling a very thin dough, which she's making here; it's sold in big bagged bundles. It's a hard way to make a living I think.

Did you find out what the dough was used for?

The dough- good question. I'm not for sure, but I think it's used as filo pastry is used. I saw a couple of people who bought big bags of it, so I assume it doesn't dry out like filo does.
