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...
