Yes, Betsy, I love to shop ....

Misc.


groceries or whatever.

And even tho we're now just '2' -- I still find myself shopping a lot.

I love going to the Farmer's Market for a lot of goodies (ours is open Thurs, Fri and Sat - tho it will soon be closing for a few weeks due to a yearly fair needing the space - it is located indoors at the fairgrounds about a 20 minute drive from where I live). This Farmers Market has vegetable and fruit stands; meat stands; poultry booths; natural food; gourmet coffee; Italian deli; middle-east deli; small cookware shop; a bread 'brokers' where they bring luscious breads in from the city; several deli booths - some owned by caterers with terrific stuff; a couple of spots with mouth-watering cooked foods; seafood stand; nut house, etc. Naturally, every time go -- I come home with way too much! So I only try to go about once a month.

I also like doing the 'bulk' food items at a warehouse store .... sometimes I really get some good bargins there.

And then there are the regular supermarkets. They keep chaning ..... we've lived here years and I don't think I've REALLY have one that I like for everything!

And there are a few speciality stores I like to go to also -- my favorite fish store is only about 1-1/2 miles from here; but my favorite italian deli and meat place is over 10 miles. However, his fresh mozzarella is worth the trip!

No wonder I need the weight loss board. Next stop!
