dalthauser* Thank you Dawn for your thoughtful e-card. It lifted my spirits!
* My friend Alexis treated me to a lovely day of pampering and retail therapy. It's nice to have people who care about you - I think we get along so well because we are both loners looking for more meaning out of life. That and we both like asian supermarket food!! :-)
* Here's my booty from Tom's (or was that Tim's....) market in San Antonio. Man, that place is impressive China, Korea, Japan - and Noh spice mixes from Hawaii. What's not to love?
Clockwise from left:
China White Tea
Shitake Spinach Ramen
Vegetarian Soup Mix
Dofu Dessert (It's agar agar based)
Pickled Vegetables (but Alexis and I really each got one for the cool crock it came in)
Mixed Herb Tea (Green tea, peppermint, citron, plantain, agrimony)
Mixed Grain Pasta (oat, rice, wheat, etc. - not sure what makes it turn a purplish brown...)
Then an assortment of agar agar dessert mixes.
I also bought Lychee soda, Canned Lychee fruit, and Lychee Agar cups which I'd already put in the fridge.

Date: 2008-09-25 07:13 pm (UTC)We have a couple of small Indian groceries with all kinds of stuff. It's fun... I'm sure there's an Oriental store in Albuquerque (2+ hours) but not sure about Santa Fe, where we usually go for Trader Joes, nurseries, etc every few weeks. I need to check that out...
Did you know Alexis before LJ?
