you know it is fall when....

yes the yummy beer hits to shelves of your favorite supermarket. my favorite supermarket is whole foods flagship store in austin. we are so in love with this place that we often spend our weekend free time taking the 60 mile drive north just to buy groceries. don’t get me wrong- it is much more than just a grocery store~ it is a shopping experience. full of plenty of sample cooking stations, knowledgeable staff, multiple restaurants in different themes which seem to just sit in the open style market-type areas and so many products it could easily take a shopper a good three hours to walk the store. (not to mention you can walk around sipping a glass of wine or enjoying a seasonal beer) this is a place we always take visitors and when you are there you get the feeling that this is a tourist attraction to many people.

even better there just happens to be in the same town the be-all & end-all of fabric stores. now i have to put my christmas thinking cap on.

thank you craftorama. i love my new fabrics.

Lara, there is a food writer inside of you waiting to get out! That's a great description of the ginormous Whole Foods. I miss that place. I am envious that you can go whenever you wish. It's a food fairyland.

I love that beer. I was shocked to find that it is mostly gone from the Dallas area already - they've replaced it with their Winter Ale (WTH? Winter isn't for 2 months!). I think I found the last 2 six packs in Dallas last week. I went to about 10 stores!
