It's funny how life surprises you-kind of like finding out the new H-E-B across town has that one…read moreelusive item your regular stores just can't seem to stock. So off I went to order curbside, and wow, what an experience. First of all, curbside here is chef's kiss. They've got their own dedicated area off to the side, away from the parking lot chaos. No fighting with other customers who think your reserved spot is fair game. Nope, this is a curbside oasis. There are plenty of spots, and the in-and-out process is smoother than a perfectly ripe avocado. The store itself looks great from the outside--pristine, shiny, and promising. I haven't been inside yet (I mean, why bother when curbside is this good?), but I've heard the Texas BBQ inside is legendary. And now I'm torn: do I break my streak of grocery-store efficiency and go in for brisket, or do I stay loyal to my curbside kingdom? Decisions, decisions. In conclusion, this H-E-B has me contemplating a long-term relationship. I might just keep coming here, even if it's a bit of a drive. Who knew I'd get so sentimental about parking spots and stocked shelves? Next thing you know, I'll be writing sonnets about their tortilla factory.

But tonight he cussed me out told me to shut the f up when I was leaving the store and not to come back in his shift.

Where oh where have all the baked goods gone, that used to fill our heads with warmth. The smells,…read morethe aromas, the bursting flavors as each morsel was enjoyed for its special delight. I grew up in a small town where bakery shops anchored each neighborhood. There were bread bakeries where the fresh baked aroma reached my nostrils long before I reached the bakery. The bread so fresh and delicious it could be eaten before I got home unless I put it away someplace where it wasn't easily reached. Then the famous Pine Street Bakery right in the middle of my paper route where I could always negotiate the cost of delivery for a sweet juicy wonderful morsel of baked goods. And so I was spoiled and fattened with such pastries, pies, desserts. Succulent Danish pastry, fresh baked pies, and cakes that made Mom cry. So today I do my best to find anything to take home for dessert. On my recent trip to HEB I stopped at the bakery noticing a top shelf of baked goods sold under an upscale sounding label. Something a bit above the rest. So for $14.98 I purchased the Banana Creme Pie with Bischoff Cookie Pieces. I always love a god Banana Cream Pie loaded with banana in cream. I really thought that it would have bananas. But no! The listing of ingredients showed a banana puree after the first twelve chemicals used to create this illusion. The rest of the fifty ingredients only served to preserve this chemical creation in perpetuity. Stupidly I didn't't just stop with the pie as two cake slices stood out begging me to purchase them. A Birthday Confetti Cake and a Lemon Mouse Cake with each slice costing $7.99 I felt quite proud to be bringing home something nice for dessert. Like the pie (?) before them these chemical concoctions ended up in the garbage disposal. When the goods behind the counter are all the result of chemical concoctions and frosting illusions there is nothing real about HEB Bakery. Are there real bakeries using real ingredients, (non-artificial, non-chemical ingredients) in the Austin area? I need a good fix.
