I had my very first butcher experience this weekend. I fully believe that meat grows in plastic wrap at the grocery store, but Micaela decided to educate me otherwise and took me to her butcher at Reading Terminal Market. Super cheap ground lamb, custom cut stew meat, and the fun of watching the butcher flirt like crazy with Micaela. As an added bonus, the quality of the meat was superb.
We also went to Iovine's to pick up random vegetables and fruits. It's crazy cheap, and they had amazing mangoes on sale for 2/$1.49. But the best thing was the container of dried apple rings I picked up on a whim. Wow, those things are like crack! I just went back today to get two more containers because they disappear way too fast. I'm taking a chance and trying the dried pears as well. Yes, my life is that exciting.
p.s. Happy Birthday Jen!

Glad to share my butcher with you. Try the poultry guys. Their eggs are so much cheaper than the grocery store especially brown eggs. I have given up buying meat and produce from the supermarket like Superfresh because they are not fresh and expensive. I also had a bad experience. My meat was bad from Superfesh.
