The Grocery Store




Here are some of the food items in the grocery store that you don't see often in the states. Everything is very fresh and inviting. The first photo is of spice jars. I think the jars are very attractive. I think the second photo is of eels. Can anyone confirm? The third photo is of octopus. These are the ones no longer with Nemo. I don't know what the last picture is. It looks like it might have scales and could be fish. I just liked the pattern.

    Very interesting. I like how they have the octopi (is this the plural?) laid out. Have you had any octopus since you've been there? Just wondering how they prepare it. Mom is excited to come out. Takes lots of pictures while she's there so we can follow you on the blog. Bon appetite!!

    Hi Jerry,

    I can assure you that I would loose a lot of weight in China! I don't know why it is so different from snails and truffles in France, but it is...Talked to Del today, she is excited to be there. There will still be football when you get back so we will see you then.

    Dear Team Harrison,
    I am devoting this afternoon to getting ready for Dell. It has been a month and I am still sleeping on the couch. I guess its time to make the bed!

    Dear Me,
    I can't wait!

    Dear Rich,
    You would love some of the food here; the pictures were just of some of the unusual stuff. I am in football withdrawal!
