I'm really pretty boring, Howard. :-)

I love the Chef's Gallery in Stillwater. And I was at Cooks of Crocus
Hill in Edina in July, shortly after Surly Table moved in two doors
down. Williams-Sonoma is pricey, though I have bought cotton
tablecloths and napkins from them -- I like the way they fade. :-)
The Surly Table folks didn't impress me, though I loved their Seattle
store (where I bought my Bigass� cooking kettle/lobster cooker/jam
kettle) eight years ago. The place in Waconia is interesting but
further than I'm interested in traveling.

I buy canning jars. I get them at Fleet Farm. Now, THAT'S a great
place to shop. And I love the second floor at Zabar's in New York. Oh,
yeah!

(Hey, the Second Avenue Deli has re-opened -- somewhere else but still
with that name. Midtown, I think.)
