Please leave the link to your post on here so it can easily be found. They will all be in one place!! Thank you!

I had fun last week, going to Dick's Sporting Goods Store, but, this week, I really needed food, so we are off to my local Harris Teeter (Hey! Don't judge! At least it doesn't have a name like Piggly Wiggly, right?) So, off we go, to the Teeter, as I always call it.

First up! We need to stop and get coffee, which, lucky for me is available right inside the door. Grande Skinny Latte, extra shot, no foam please.

My barista's name is Pat. She knows what I like. She also asks if I want it extra hot, like usual. Gosh. Thanks, Pat.

Here it comes. I am ready to go! Thank you so much, Pat!

Oh! Where to begin? I usually am a little more organized than this, but, I have my coffee and I am meandering through, creating recipes in my head. Nope. Not this aisle.

I am grateful that I went early in the morning. The people are few and far between. Is she eyeballing my chips? Oh, I think I just need to get her a coffee. She is sleeping at the wheel there.

It's not my birthday, but, there is so much happy going on here... All sorts of fun to keep me from making my way out of this aisle. Wait! Look what I see.

Oh! Cards! I don't really need one because I make my own, but, I still like to stand in the aisle and read them. Especially the funny ones. Me, the card and the sound of my own laughter echoing in the aisle. Remember, we are not here to judge

And yes, her hair is Easter egg pink. Grannie gets points for being cool.

I know what you are thinking... Isn't this a grocery store? Produce, milk, eggs, bread? But, instead, let's buy a gift card to another store. This is getting to be a one stop shopping.

And then there was forgiveness. There were flowers. Flowers and flowers. Sigh Up close and personal ones. How could I resist?

Okay! Party is over and coffee is gone. Now, it is time for a high speed pass! Or get more coffee. Making my way to the peanut butter. A staple food in my house. Nothing says love more than a Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. :) Kidding. But, it really is a lifesaver some days!

And a little honey for my honeys. I know Very corny. :) But, it's true! And a little sunflower butter. Yummy delicious! Yes! I know my hands look like I raked my yard with my nails, but honestly, it is just a little guy named Henry that makes my hands look abused.

He plays hard. But, I love him anyway. I was there before grocery shopping. He gets up early and expects to be fed and groomed before the sun shines. Okay! Back to shopping!

There is a salad bar there too. The Volunteer Fire Department comes in every day for lunch. Didn't they used to make their own? Maybe there is no budget for that. Hmmm. That would be a pretty nice Random Act of Kindness if you have a Volunteer Fire Department. Right?

Oh, olives, how I love thee! One of lifes biggest downfalls for me. I love them. They love me. So, why shouldn't we be together? Sigh Is it the fat? The sodium? But, I love them.

Food Allergy Awareness. Food with nuts. Peanuts and all kinds of tree nuts.

Now, my veggie run! My most favorite of all the aisles. I will not bore you will all that I bought! Just rest assured, I have gotten enough!

Oops! Ran back for the cheese! Now - back to the vegetables and fruits!

Grab a few while we pass by, would you? Summer squash!

There they were, all my leafy good for you greens. Kale, spinach to name a few.

Now perhaps would be a good time to grab some apples! They are in season and taste so delicious! You know what they say? An apple a day.... fill in the blank. I don't want that cheeta bot to slam me or plagurizing. Right???

And we are done, done, done! Checking out! Step away from the drinks. Checking out. No magazines. Hello?? Checking out!

Checked out and wave to the Customer Service people. They make life so easy when you have a problem.

Took it home, unloaded it and now! The refrigerator check! Refrigerator check! What's in yours????

Thanks for shopping with me today! It made it go by much faster. Next time, try to get to the barn first. :) I hope you have a wonderful #MarketFriday and don't forget to peruse around some of the other markets here. They are from all over the world and I must say, quite interesting in so many ways. Enjoy!!

Oh you little spammer, you. Going for the old double dip, I see! No, just playing with you. I know it's a glitch. But I still had to upvote this one as well. Market Friday and your post are definitely doing great. Very popular and lots of interaction. Always your biggest fan.
