I have not been there yet - I thought I would wait for the crowds to subside. I heard that it is a beautiful store, but somewhat expensive. The prepared foods aisle is a whole city block long!

We're so desperate for new supermarkets here in NYC - isn't sad how excited I am for the new store?

OH MAN!! Where is it???

I was just whining to some friends, for about the 900th time, about the grocery situation! I'm close to Fairway, but I swear last time I went I was practically in tears. It was so crowded, so frantic, i couldn't take it.

The crowds everywhere else in the city don't bother me at all. I go to Times Square via subway everyday, and I'm fine. But the grocery store sends me over the edge- I think because I know that I can't get everything I want in one place- I have to go to at least 2, maybe 4!

I did finally find that yummy Red Vanilla Tea Jen was talking about. FINALLY! Yummy, too.

I'll see ya at the Wholefoods- I'll be the bald girl reading all the labels!

Lisa- it's at the new AOL/Time Warner Center at Col. Circle. It's a little far for me to go on a regular basis, but I might pop in on the way back from work in midtown now and then.

Good luck on the bar. I passed in 1997. It was pretty much what I expected after preparting - not so bad. And it's great to get it over with. Did you do a prep. course, or are you studying on your own?

Yes, absoultely good luck with the bar. Is it true that New York is harder than San Francisco or was that just someone showing off to me once? For me, I am so glad those days are over, but it is a cool qualification to have.

Lisa - The fact that you are sticking with the diet while studying is fantastic!

I passed in 2002 and while I was studying, I was an eating machine! Best of luck to you!
