Raleys and Trader Joes: the former because of the location, products and friendliness of the staff and the latter because of the even better products.

Cook the Book: Serves One
Usually a pasta dish of some sort with a salad, bread and a glass of wine to accompany the meal. Always eaten at the table with a place setting, a good magazine and the Sirius classic jazz channel in the background to help me linger over my meal.
Favorite summer food- now and from childhood?
Ice cream from my childhood and nowadays, it's tomatoes.
Cold Cereal Confessions
Copious amounts of Cracklin Oat Bran (seriously) and Quaker 100% natural granola. I love this stuff-I just wish it wasnt' so bad for you.

Ina Garten/Barefoot Contessa:
You and Jeffrey are too cute, since you don't have children, will you adopt me?
How many stores do you shop at for your food?
Two: Raleys and Trader Joes-both once/week. And of course, the farmer's market every Sunday.
Would you rather give up chocolate or cheese?
No brainer: chocolate. I love any and all types of cheese but chocolate I can easily do without.
Cook the Book: 'Vegetable Harvest'
Since my lovable 67 pound labrador likes to eat my tomatoes, I have no other choice than to buy them, and all other produce, at the farmer's market. However, I do grow basil, sage, rosemary and mint; herbs that in my opinion, go with just about anything regardless of the season.

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.
