My Hero, Trader Joe's




Trader Joe's has come to the rescue.

I was shopping there a few days ago and took a look at their "foreign" wine section. I tend to do this in every grocery store these days and I always get a little homesick for my local Monoprix.

Well, in looking through the small French offering, I spotted this wine. "Hmmm, it's only $9.99 and if it tastes horrible, I can use it in a sauce, " I tell myself. So, I brought a bottle home.

We opened it that night and it was quite tasty.

A little bit of France was delivered to Manhattan Beach.

Thank you, Trader Joe's.
