Thank you Connie for taking me there!
I love it more and more and more every time I go. It is so easy to shop organic there. They have organic everything from pears to potato chips. I love the beautiful lettuce. I love the grass fed beef. I love knowing that the cow I am eating had a good life. I love jelly without high fructose corn syrup. I love knowing our meals our safe and free of crap. I love cooking organic food. I love organic produce.
Kenzee loves tasting all the cheese samples. She has her little cheese cube and then signs more, more, more and I have to get her another one. Garlic dill cheddar...yum!
Organic Sugar is so beautiful! I will post a picture of it soon. It looks like glitter to me and makes me want to do a craft project. My sister came over the other night and was making tea and she opened the canister and stared inside and said, "What is this, is this sugar?" "Oh yes," I replied, "Isn't it beautiful?"
Right now you are probably thinking, "She's crazy." Yes, you are right, but you haven't seen my beautiful glitter sugar yet.
I love the fact that the store is small and not overwhelming. I love the aisle where you can make your own fruit & nut trail mix/granola although I have not attempted this yet. I love the beef guys who try and get the poundage just right by feeling it before they put it on the scale. They are really funny.
It sucks to drive to Arlington for groceries, but it is worth it. We have gotten better at planning and double checking our list because we don't make two trips to Arlington. We go once every two weeks and it is working out great.
Note for Levi...we have been taking our own bags. I like that too. I feel like I am doing a good thing. Here is a link from Levi to an awful story about mostly plastic forming a large conglomeration of crap in the Pacific ocean. It was an eye opener for me. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/10/19/SS6JS8RH0.DTL&hw=pacific+patch&sn=001&sc=1000
Check out http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/ I hope we will get one closer to us soon. Until then we will go to Arlington for groceries and I will be happy about it.

I want glitter sugar! I've never gotten sugar there but it's on my list now because you know I love glitter and so far I have never eaten it. We need to go together again soon....maybe we can ALL go and make it a family outing.
