The first word should be “Teetering” which is what we did
last week. Oddly enough (you might well
think) although the place has been open for over a year, the Feeder never was
able to take a tour. MFO still prefers
Giant, saying the parking places at Teeter’s are narrow and hard for the
MOMSTER to fit easily. But with me along
we have the (deserved) blue tag enabling us to take advantage of closer in (and
wider) parking. So I asked if we could
take a “fam flight” as we used to say.
Yup, she was up for it so off we went.
They were setting up for Valentine’s Day
As you can see, in general, the layout is popular concept of
“islands”,
smallish “centers” dedicated to a single item.
Appetizing, eh? Ooey,
gooey cornstarched to death
or at most harmonious parings, like Pizza and Cheese
Between the islands there is plenty of space to maneuver in
and the other aisles are quite spacious
Specifically there is much more variety of product available
than the Giant across the road.
The produce, while abundant is somewhat quality challenged
as friends who go there warned us
Poor little parsley
However, as I said, the variety of stuff available far
outstrips its competition. Take the "seafood" department or, excuse me, the
For example, you don’t often see Branzino and Monkfish in (our) grocery stores:
Nor squid/calamari, octopus, and not pictured Mussels (dead,
dead o)
Of course, I have no way of judging quality nor freshness..
The meat area has actual non-packaged cuts with a person
there to help you (“no, the one under the cut the closest to me”) and features
Angus beef (did not see the word “certified”).
Plenty of pre-packaged stuff like sausages (including Andouille!), and a bow to the burgeoning “no beef” mania
Say it ain’t so!! Bubba!!! What’s the world coming to??
The rest of the store is laid out somewhat peculiarly and the aisles are clearly marked with what's on the shelves
No comment
A more reasonable grouping
And what, pray tell, are “New Age Drinks”? maybe means
something to millennials, which I certainly am
not!
If it were up to me, I would go their in lieu of Giant, but
it is not in my job description. Be interesting
to see what McKay’s does with the old “Shopper’s” location in San Souci…
Enjoy your president’s day!
Descending into (the seemingly popular):
RANTS
I suppose this is sacrilege, but I can’t help it. Of course I am sorry that Mr. Bryant and his
daughter (and the others) perished in the ‘copter crash. BUT… all of a sudden the man is a saint. Name awards after him, eulogize, best human
ever, etc. I hear there is talk of
replacing the statue in the Lincoln statue in DC with one of him. He did have a great career, but if a second
string shooting guard was one of the victims do you think the outcry and mania
would be the number one topic in sports show, after show, after show, after
show, after show, with all the hosts being almost breaking into tears?
Segue into sort of a related topic (of hosts), where they
find those obnoxious “side men” puzzles me.
It’s not about the game, it’s about THEM. They know more than any of the coaches or
players (he should have passed to so and so, going away from the zone was a
mistake, he should have called time out, on and on). Hindsight is a wonderful thing. If they’re so damn smart how come they’re not
coaching? My lineup of mute button insufferable
examples is:
1. Dan (I know it all) Dockish;
2. Bill (Move those puppies, big fella!) Raftery.
3. Gary (Sincerely cute) Danielson
4. Booger (listen to ME – I played at Auburn!)
McFarland
5. Beth (always “performing” her comments or play
by play) Mowins
6. Dick (“Diaper Dandies” Are you kidding me?) Vitale (could be anywhere on the list)
7. Amanda (see how many teeth I have?) Balionis
Best of the best (IMHO):
Nick Faldo; Tony Romo; Chris
Collingsworth; Troy Aikman; Rebecca Lobo; Dottie Pepper; David Feherty (in a
class by himself)
Why they let Gary McCord go for DLIII is a mystery
Okay enough is enough
Don’t forget to honor our President’s George and Abe by
