Dear Trader Joe's,
Since I have been doing this stupid yeast elimination diet, I have been trying new foods. Most specifically, I have been enchanted with spelt. It's a grain or something. I rather like it in tortilla form.
But Trader Joe's, you are really far from my house. It's such a long drive and the parking lot makes me tense.
Today, I discovered Sunflower Farmers Market. It's kind of like a smaller, slightly less expensive version of Whole Foods. I was extremely pleased with my shopping experience. I found all sorts of products that were mentioned in my new favorite magazine, Body + Soul.
They had spelt english muffins. Mmmm. They had spelt pretzels. Since i hate regular pretzels, I don't have a ton of hope for these, but I'm going to try it. The Boy is happy because there was a whole lotta stuff involving dead bison. I liked the produce, although I couldn't find a pepper, which was annoying. The selection is somewhat limited, like Fresh and Easy, but I am much happier with them than Fresh and Easy.
Trader Joe's, the nail in the coffin is that Sunflower is WAY closer to our house than you. I'm sorry, but our relationship is essentially over. We'll see each other from time to time when The Boy needs seed filled vegetable juice or frozen salmon with skin. But otherwise, I am with Sunflower now.
It's been fun.
Danielle
