Wegmans for Wine & Apps

I have an important work day tomorrow, so doing a quick post here.

I went to Wegmans on way home from Montvale to get appetizers--and, in the attached store, wine--since Fritch and Moey were coming over here.

Wegmans is a verrrry tempting foodie playground, I spent a lot, but I got a lot, much of which is in our fridge for future meals. Cart held prosciutto; lb. fresh mozzarella; pizza dough; 2 very good pesto; ciabatta; roasted tomatoes; lox; 2 packs fresh raspberries; 2 good gourmet cheese; dates stuffed with Brie, which I warmed in toaster oven; 2 cereal; 2 fresh mushroom; 1 frozen vegan pizza; jar fig jam; 2 boxes Balance bars, mainly for Punch; fresh scallops entree; very big butternut squash and fresh spinach side dish; very big pack grilled lemon chicken breasts for week; big bag Parmesan crisps; big bag snack-size Parmigiano-Reggiano portions; deodorant; holiday issue--Thanksgiving magazine; Ritz crackers; big bag popcorn; 2 reusable grocery bags; and $1 donation at register, $216.68. It was a fun spread for a rainy Sunday with Moey, Fritch and family before Fritch flew back to Florida.

I don't get to Wegmans often...I love their selection. But it is a good thing I don't shop there often.

Good night.

  1. See, now all my discipline and strictness goes right out the window when it comes to Wegmans. They are an upstate NY company, and all upstaters love them passionately. ;)

    1. Aha! Makes sense. That place is a play land. I got a lot of good stuff but could not afford to keep that up. Maybe once a month, though, because I'm working more in city and got readymade grilled chicken breasts etc.....sending love
