Well, it was Sunday afternoon and I needed to go to Publix. Had a prescription to pick up so Panama City Beach it was. It wasn't too bad. Checkout clerk said Saturday was a killer. But, next to SoWal, Publix is one of the better places for gossip. On Aisle 1, next to the wine and trail mix, I heard that Britte Green had bought a place at WaterColor and that it would just be a short time before all the inventory below $1 MILLION DOLLARS was sold out.

She'll be partying down with Paris Hilton and Brittany any day now. :funn:

I got all my groceries at the new Publix on Saturday but they were out of rice noodles so I had to make the trek to Watercolor. It is good to keep the stealth shopping skills sharp. In, zig then zag up the aisle (of course I already know what aisle everything is on), weave and slither back down another aisle, snicker as I shoot past all of the overloaded carts and make way stealthily to the super secret locals checkout register. In and out in two minutes!

Easy, I was turned black and blue when I revealed the location of the private register.

I had to wait 10 minutes to get out of City Hall yesterday and pull onto 90/331s. The cars heading south were non-stop.

As many times as you've been to City Hall you haven't learned how to go out the back way to Baldwin Avenue, then down 11th to Bruce to the light -- or west on Baldwin to whatever other street leads you out to 90. tsk tsk.

For what it is worth, Santa Rosa Beach (new) Publix was not crowded at all this afternoon. I don't think the secret is out yet.
I went by Watercolor Publix this morning, and it was packed, I decided to do my shopping at the new Publix on 98 and it was a pleasant experience!:clap:
Yikes!!:yikes: Forget combat grocery shopping. Allifunn needs to sharpen her combat kitchen skills. She is about to be "discovered."
I have been called back to Destin, so I am no longer at the Watercolor location. Job completed as to opening the new location, now I am back in Destin and on to other projects. I will still have a part in Watercolor, but not on a daily basis.

Oh, we'll miss seeing you more often. There will have to be Allifunn alerts. With St. Joe moving their main HQs from Jacksonville closer to SoWal, and Britt Greene having a home in WaterColor as reported here last week, there will be an increased demand for your level of expertise. This should also impact the year round volume at the WaterColor Publix, which as someone stated earlier is THE BEST, busy or not.

Was just in the Watercolor Publix this evening. Brisk, but not overly crowded. Just the usual pleasant shopping experience. I still maintain this is the absolutely best grocery store in the universe...get over the crowd, and just enjoy the experience. Meet some new friends!

Didn't you report the Britt Greene rumor? ;-)
