Fri. 3/12/10: I Love Trader Joe's

"Who you calling JERKY?!"

      Trader Joe's is one of my favorite places to buy food.  I really, really looooove it.  'Nuff said.

(I was told that I was "not allowed" to take pictures of the store.  I offered to delete this one, but the manager said it was okay.)

Accent: "Wakes up food flavor" AND Memories

When I saw this red "ACCENT" container at the grocery store today, it hit me like a ton of bricks. Memories of my maternal grandfather flooded back to me. If I remember correctly, his meatball recipe called for Accent. Had I not seen it, I most likely would not ever have thought of it again. It's funny how something so small can bring back a memory so big. So, one container of it now resides in my spice cabinet.

What a lovely reminder of Grandpop.

My full fridge. Love it.

Still haven't had meat, lo these many days. Continuing to plug away at the vegetarian diet. Hit the health food store before class and ShopRite after.
