Top 10 reasons why Connecticut is a piece of crap:

1) Wegmans

2) Bloomingdales

3) World Market

4) Chipotle

5) Chick-fil-A

6) Nordstrom Rack

7) Crate & Barrel

8) Maggiano's

9) Cheesecake Factory

10) Jamba Juice.

These are all the things we DON'T HAVE.  I NEED CIVILIZATION DEMMIT.

From what I understand, Harris Teeter is kinda like Wegmans, but probably not as good. And there's a Crate & Barrel in Raleigh, but I've never been there :)

Yeah, we set up a registry there not realizing there wasn't one closer, so we got rid of it. A 9-story store? That's nuts!

I don't need Wegmans. I have Whole Foods and a SUPER SUPER Stop & Shop which Chris and I have just discovered.

I could use a Chipotle or Qdoba around here.

We have a Cheesecake Facotry in the mall, but the wait is always like 3 hours. No joke. At least you can put your name in and then go shopping.

See, Whole Foods is fine, and I'd be pretty happy if we had one here instead of all the way in W. Hartford, but I need Wegmans.

I hate Stop & Shop, I call it Stop & Rob.

I have a slight grudge against Wegman's, stemming from the time I lived in Rochester. I thought the Wegman's following was rather cult-like.

Our Stop & Stop is really awesome though. HUGE produce section. Lots of deli entrees. Many, many aisles. I'm liking it better than Whole Foods because (a) it's cheaper and (b) it has a much better selection of products.

I didn't know you lived in Rochacha! Chris and I keep getting the idea to move out there every few months, heh. It is cult-like, but having one in college was a godsend, so I am a full fledged cult member ;) They opened one in northern Virginia about 6 months before I moved back and it was mobbed every single day.

Do ya'll have Shaw's in RI? I like them better than S&R.

Cheesecake factory is 20 min.
