Saturday Field Trip


I am a Wegmans convert. Today, a friend and I made the trek to Hunt Valley Town Center and spent the afternoon inside. I've been told that going to Wegmans was an experience, but I had no idea. Before we arrived, I asked my friend what was the big deal, I mean there are nice grocery stores around. Her answer, "Yes there are grocery stores and then there is Wegmans." I should have known when my friend suggested that we have lunch inside before we did any grocery shopping that she may have had a point.

How right she was. My lunch came from the Asian Bistro, my friends lunch from the sandwich shop. Our table overlooked the patisserie (later I got fresh snickerdoodle cookies from there). After lunch, we perused the kosher area, then we walked up and down the organic foods. My friend persuaded me into going to the cheese and olive bar, I passed on the Gorgonzola. The Tea Shoppe was amazing. Pat, the general merchandise manager, gave me 4 jars of pickled beets because he didn't have any on the shelf when I came by to get them. I spent $4.22 in the Candy Store (inside Wegmans) on Bit-o-Honey and Mary Janes.

I made sure that I picked up a little something to eat for tonite's before I left Wegmans. Made to order sushi (made with brown rice) seemed to be the ticket.
