Cub for savings and reasonable variety, although I get as much as I can from our local coop and farmer's markets.

Rachel Ray. She is down to earth and doesn't take herself too seriously. I would make my alfredo chicken casserole (chicken, onions, garlic, mushrooms, red pepper, broccoli, half and half, parmesan cheese, egg noodles, topped with bread crumbs.

I gather large wild mushrooms in the Fall, like Hen of the Woods and Sulfer Shelf, clean and chop, cook in a tiny bit of water so they don't burn (oil and butter don't work as well --use that in the dish you add these to), and freeze in 2 cup amounts in ziplocks. I can get over 20 cups from one good size mushroom. I have a supply of good mushrooms all year long until the next Fall.

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.
