WOW, got to be rich to eat Thai there,,

Luckily it's not that bad. My fiancee' is pretty adept at using local produce and adapting recipes to use it. It was quite amusing the other week when she sampled Jalapenos in the local market and decided there was no taste to them. She is quite satisfied with Habeneros though, although the neighbors the other night might have disagreed.

We did bring a suitcase back with us filled with staples and we have found a number of online sources for stuff but as the above posting points out it can be quite expensive.

The big problem around here is fresh seafood. Last week in NJ and NY, there was fresh seafood everywhere. Here in the mountains about all you get is trout, catfish and farmed salmon. and for some reason I can't fathom the fiancee' doesn't eat freshwater fish. So a good market in Atlanta will be well appreciated.
