Yea macca... we went on a scout field trip to the TeeterDome at Friendly and the manager told us that it was the largest grocery store in the USA.... I don't know if he had it wrong or not.... either way, it's HUMONGOUS!

That new shopping center did go up fast...... once they got the dirt moved for the zillionth time!  I couldn't believe how long it took them to grade the land and get it ready to build on.  Once they had it leveled out though, it didn't take any time to get the buildings up.  I don't think anything other than the much anticipated Backyard Burger has opened in that mini mall yet, but I'll give ya an updated report tomorrow if I spot something else over there.

I did hear that they were putting up another traffic light at the charter school where those new apartments are being built (nextdoor to the Amphi-Teeter). I think Michael Brandt might have said that at the last council meeting... not 100% sure where I heard it.  Traffic thru there is gonna get interesting.

Mornin' All! 

Scuba Jane, you have a safe trip and hurry home to us you hear??

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I almost forgot to give ya'll my Amphi-TEETER report!  I visited the store yesterday and upon entering, noticed that they had maps of the store on hand for those who forget to take their GPS along and might fear getting lost.  I am far too cool  to carry a GPS or a map and opted to employ the clever tactic of hugging the perimeter of the store figuring that I'd eventually end up back at the front doors.  Don't worry, there's plenty to see along the perimeter so don't even think about missing all that stuff in the middle.

The store was lovely and no less than 20 employees spoke to me while I was meandering thru. They had LOTS of stuff that we don't have at our Food Dawg (Except Rachel.  They don't have Rachel!).  The first example I saw was an OLIVE bar.  Now, I find it interesting that Olives require their own bar and I'm gonna be watching that thing to see if it gets much traffic. I was observing that olive bar for a while and thinkin' to myself that Summerfield residents are probably not ready for the olive bar experience.  Then later in the evening, the cracker spouse came in after visiting the Amphi-Teeter and lo and behold himmer was toting a container of olives that had been carefully selected at the Teeter olive bar. Perhaps I'm wrong and Summerfield has been needing one of those all along.

Anyway, after finally making my way back to the front doors, the cashiers were fighting over who would check me out. You'd have thought they were workin' on commission or something!  William W. (Of Westridge-Teeter fame) won the battle and was very polite and efficient.  I'll be lookin' for him next time I visit.  He might turn out to be my "Teeter Rachel" you never know!

Triple coupons this weekend!  Start clipping!

Ok Pappy... I'm willin' to give it a go, but if those cash register people MOO at me, I'm outta there!

I LOVE (BTW....that's an anagram for OLIVE!) the new Amphi-TEETER!
