It just took me 45 minutes to pick up my Biltmore Wine Club package because the Biltmore is crowded 24/7 these days and some of their roads are being worked on.  Pick up is quarterly; I'd be suuuuper frustrated if I had to do that pickup route any more frequently.  (Though the wine club allows us a free glass of wine whenever we visit, I didn't take them up on it at 11 am.)

OK, so I get my WINE club cases delivered!!!!

:roll:

We have an amazing neighborhood farmers market. But, we never go.

I'm super thankful for our awesome local grocery store that supports local farmers-- even to the point of local flour and local dried beans and what not.
Same here!  I don't like the crowds.  I like the wine bar at my local grocery store!   :P

This week, I got fava beans, shisito peppers, portobellos, a boule,  blueberries,  and pattypan squash, and something else which I am forgetting!

Now this is just disappointing. 
People put a lot less effort into picking apart evidence that confirms what they already believe.

The money is in the division. Always has been, always will be. Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, is the watchword of the wise.
