indiana_jHrm. I think Whole Foods, as a whole, is too pricey for my regular shopping trips, especially when I need to restock normal items after not shopping in two weeks. About $40 over what this would have cost me at, say, Safeway, and about $50 over what Giant would have cost me.
However, I was able to find not one but three different types of prosecco from $9.99 to $16.99; I finally found a store that has scallions (seriously. Neither Giant, Safeway, nor Shoppers has them); the meat might be pricey but it's good quality and the butchers will actually, you know, butcher for you.
I think Whole Foods needs to become my scallion / doing a really good meal / treating myself (bread was still warm when I bought it).
So, now, I rush to make dinner (I went to my parents yesterday so we could belatedly celebrate Heather's birthday; only the well stopped working properly so we were at a hotel last night *facepalm*. Today was the National Zoo. So shopping and dinner are, well, very late) using half of the blessed steak I bought. The rest I shall freeze and save for something fantastic this week.
