comparison

left the office to go meet an old freelance client to review some ideas. afterwards hopped on the bus and headed home, interestingly enough i realized that whole foods was on the way. to be quite honest i have never done any normal grocery shopping at whole foods... in the first place the nickname 'whole paycheck' has been a bit of a deterrent for the last few years and the other deterrent being the giant hill between home and there. since i'm already on top of the hill i thought i'd do a little a/b testing and pick up my usual safeway rations and prepare my usual dinner.

the result: extra cost was about $25 dollars more on the whole, which includes the slightly higher priced bottle of wine. dinner, the mushroom, red pepper, onion, garlic and squash pasta i made with my ingredients was about 10 times better than normal. definitely worth the additional cost and as far as the shopping comparison whole foods wins out over the slightly more affordable safeway... however, finding a new way up that hill will be an issue...
