I'm becoming more and more a TJ's cultist.

I've been trying to buy fresh locally roasted coffee beans regularly.
But their Columbian Supremo really hits the right notes for me. So now
I have to go regularly.

Recent obsession inducing finds:

TJ's Bohemian Lager
Cashew, Almond, Coconut and Chocolate "Trek Mix." Way too good, and
the nuts are roasted.

My wife likes their shampoos and soaps too.

Shirley, there must be an orchard around Pitt or in Ohio that can
provide you with this. I know you could get
it in Michigan, but that's 5 hours of driving.
