1) The Strawberry's next to Trader Joe's on ~~Storrow~~ Memorial (thanks Mycroft) Drive is closing in two weeks. They are selling everything. Used stuff, DVD sets, everything's had its price cut. I looked lustfully at season one of Carnivale, but even with the price cut it's $80.

2) The new Penzey's store is a bit further down on Mass Ave in Arlington than I would have expected. I gave myself a $20 limit, ended up spending closer to $10. I enjoyed the smelling jars as they give me an excellent idea of what I can put their spices in. I noticed that the spices mixes made me rub my nose a bit - fairly strong. That or my nose really is getting closer to bloodhound.

3) Rosebud in Malden remains a very good place for produce. 89 cent fresh mangos. Mmmmm... mango lhassi...

(edited to add) Mango lhassi note: more sugar, less honey.

Just out of curiosity: does Mahoney's Farm in Winchester still exist?

Not sure if that one does, but there's one on Western Ave in Allston (it used to be on Mem Drive in Cambridge).

You mean the one on the left as you head north on Route 3 (I think it is)? The sign was there last weekend when I drove to visit friends in Winchester, though we didn't pass the property itself, to get a sense of whether it was still a going concern. The turn we had to make to get to the friends' house was just before Mahoney's, so I saw the sign and little else.

Yes, Mahoney's in Winchester is still there. The "Rocky Ledge Farm" sign came down years ago, though. And there is a cat there... seems like lots of nurseries and farms have cats, which get annoyed at people who don't pet them.... I think there are still Mahoney's in other places. The one in Winchester is the original.
