Default Re: Anyone else experiencing a drought?

I went on a field trip to Largo today. I visited there specifically for an Amish store not owned by Amish; that was painfully obvious. I really miss trips to where cheese is cheese. Oh, well. Fortunately I did go shopping in Plant City; I found out where everyone goes to buy their produce for resale. 40lbs of plum tomatoes for $15 and a large rosemary plant for $2 made my day. Another stop for a couple of smaller herb pants at $1. A little market in St. Pete tempted me with black apricots, red pears and yellow pluots. Haven't been inside a Trader Joe's in 10 years so stopping there was a treat. Where I lived they were not allowed to sell alcohol so today I bought 2 bottles of 2 Buck Chuck. (Okay, they're $2.99 now but...) Visited an amazing indoor Farmers Market; came home with 20lbs of Brussels Sprouts for $8 along with some other goodies. Had a great Italian sub at a little Italian bakery; the bread was so great I purchased 2 small loaves for my Sicilian driver/friend. I had a wonderful outing especially since it rained off and on all day across FL.

Alas, it did not rain at my house...
