Pensieri di un lunatico minore

The spice merchant of Falls Church

I’ve written about Penzey’s Spices before, and their strange similarity to crack dealers—in a good way. Today, I finally stopped by the new store they opened, not far from my place, and on the way home from work. Today’s haul was largely intended to replenish a few things that have been recently depleted:

• Natural cocoa powder
• Sarawack black peppercorns
• Chicken soup base
• Mexican vanilla extract (single strength)
• Sunny Paris herb mix
• Horseradish powder

In addition, being the ever-effective crack dealers, I managed to walk out with 2 “free jars” that had damaged labels, but were otherwise intact. One, I was intending to buy anyway, so it was a major bonus:

• Bavarian seasoning
• Mural of flavor

I can see this is going to be dangerous.
