What was the name of the place we used to do some shopping at when we were in Harrisonburg? The discount grocery store with the Mennonite candies, and horrible canned veggies? Sharp Shopr, Smart Savr, something like that

Sharp Shopper? south side of town? 2nd hand surplus, large mennonite section?

or G&H out on 33 with the hotdog and drink deal?

[wafflebunny]

I don't know about the surplus part, but that sounds about right. In the same shopping center as the Pizza Hut, and across the road from Blue Ridge Comics?

[quicksilver927]

it was further down from Blue ridge, like one block, on the same side, and i don't remember a pizza the hut, so i could be wrong

I've eaten jellyfish, at a chinese restaurant in NoVa. It has the consistency of rubber bands and tastes like whatever you cook it in. FWIW, green onion sauce isn't a good choice.

[wafflebunny]

That doesn't surprise me much, they seem like they'd just be thin layers of some sort of protein, and would get very chewy when cooked very quickly.

Rack n Sack?

[wafflebunny]

No, I'm pretty sure Alex had it right, the Sharp Shopper.

[labrynthos]

Yes. Alex had it right, it was Sharp Shopper!

Good Times.

[wafflebunny]

Good times indeed.

I loved pulling up there and seeing a Mennonite buggy parked outside with a dreamcatcher hanging between the front seats.

It is sharp shopper, the store is still there and that horse and buggy with the dreamcatcher has often made me scratch my head. My fave is the one with the OBX sticker on the back of it though.
There is also the cheese place in the shenandoah farmers market and there is another in dayton. I can't walk out of those two places for less than fifty bucks, on my kitchen counter I have cous cous, red rice, a lot of cumin and goodness knows what else from there.
