I gotta second Woodman's in Milwaukee for the liquor department, but Brennan's in a Milwaukee suburb for cheese and fresh produce.

Oh, no question - if you have the copper mugs, it's gotta be a Moscow Mule. Nothing is more refreshing than icy cold condensation dripping off your ginger beer/vodka/lime wedge-filled copper mug!

How Do You Like Your Cheesecake?

Usually just plain, but a slice of Simma's cheesecake here in Milwaukee will send me to momentary heaven.

Mashed potatoes. I used to have a job I hated hated hated that was 65 miles away from home. On my lunch hour, I would actually go to KFC and get a large mashed potato and sit in my car and eat it and cry.

I'm torn between a chocolate-pistachio pate' with raspberry cream or Al Sicherman's Brownie in a Cloud (chocolate chunk brownies in whipped cream with chocolate sauce).

I love Henry's market in San Diego. It's close to my house, they have great deals on local fruits and veggies, and they have $3 bottles of wine. Awesome.

I usually shop at the new Super Walmart purely because they just opened a store a mile from where I work. My favorite supermarket is Trader Joe's, but I don't go but a few times a year since 45 minutes is too long to drive to get up there. I have a feeling that I would like Whole Foods a lot too if I ever go to one, but the nearest one of those is at least an hour away.

Vons is my favorite store. They usually have the things I need on sale and they still double coupons. The fruits and vegetables are high quality which you can't get in the discount stores. The meat is fresh and there is a nice assortment.

We recently moved to West Virginia, which has stunning natural beauty and the nicest people on the planet...but the grocery stores here are terrible. Locally, my only choice is an IGA. My favorite all-time grocery store was Wegman's, which I used to be able to visit when we lived in Virginia.

Here in Texas, I love HEB. They have a great wine, health food, bakery, deli and sushi section. I can get almost anything there and the people are awesome!

I love Lunds/Byerlys, a local store. Great products that you can't find elsewhere. Plus, the stores are always very clean.
