teddywolf1) 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.

I hope to say "howdy" in person
Date: 2005-06-13 06:27 pm (UTC)Matthew and I will be visiting with Spencer, Persis and Talis in late July into perhaps early August. We're very much playing things by ear. In between is Baitcon.
What is your actual due date for sprog? I'm hoping that I'll have a chance to see you both while I'm in your general vicinity, if not for long, at least for perhaps a meal and a conversation, and of course, hugs. Let me know what your availablity during that time might be.
