It's here, it's open, and it's FABULOUS. I should know, I almost missed carpool pick-up wandering around today, sniffing each and every fragrant jar. Check out the new Penzeys in Carytown. Deveron Timberlake will have the news in her column on Wednesday in Style Weekly, but just between you and me, she says they came because they say there's a high concentration of their mail order customer base here. That's you and me, baby! WE brought them here! So go buy some of their great stuff so they'll be able to stick around for a while.

We have one in Falls Church, VA and I love it! In fact, I believe I'm overdue for a trip there.

"there's a high concentration of their mail order customer base here"
I'm on that list. Off that I hadn't heard they were coming.
You'd think they would have let their customers know.

Goes to show that grassroot, boot-on-the-ground effort can pay off every now and again!
I don't have a Penzey's near me, but I have had some of their spices before. Very good stuff, well worth your endorsement.

Yep, I'm one of their mail-order customers all right! Tripp, they sent a postcard about it.
