can't say enough good things about my ALDI... Grilled some amazing Tilapia fillets I purchased from there.... have eaten some great Havarti cheese... found a new favorite cereal... oh.. I could go on... I am amazed at this whole new world!! ALDI- WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?? Better asked - where have I been ??? so... totally down with the affordability of this relationship... my wallet is way happy... AND seriously lovin' the company/corporation/whatever you call them... for bucking the system and not spending frivolously in advertising or buccos of plastic bags shoved down my throat at every opportunity... I honestly enjoy taking my own bags/basket in car/packing boxes from products stocked @ ALDI to transport my goodies to my kitchen... I find pleasure in the whole experience... enjoyment in placing my well worn quarter into the cart contraption-thingy or placing it into the hand of a fellow ALDI-er as they bring their cart back up to trade off .... the satisfaction of a sealed experience as I plug my cart back in after unloading my purchases into my car and redeeming my precious... "my pre-cious.."... lovely worn quarter you are. seriously.

how wonderful to find someone else who loves ALDI! I go there all the time, I'm slowly convincing David of how great it is too. Have you tried their red pepper hummus? Mmmm. Or their fruit & nut meusli? I love that they randomly have european imports, like german sunflower rye bread. Oh, we also got two 0-degree-rated mummy sleeping bags there for $25 a piece! What a bargain. And their frozen potstickers are yummy too. Anyway, I'll stop now. I'll be sure to think of you next time I'm putting a quarter into my cart. (:
Hi Lexa. Hope you remember me from IWU- this is Melissa Easley (now Duckwall). I was so excited to see your name on Jenn's blog-friend list because ever since college, I've wanted to tell you "thank you". You were SUCH an encouragement and inspiration to me in my spiritual walk when we were in college (esp. as Chorale chaplain). Your love for Christ was so apparent/beautiful... and it motivated me to grow up in my own relationship with Christ. Wish I would have had the courage to tell you in college but for some reason I was shy. Thank you, Lexa.
