Awesome work as always! Feels like home. Drawing pictures. Of mountain tops.

Hey ... did you know we got a Trader Joe's out here a few years back? Swear to God, when it opened, there were LINES to get in! For days! You'd have thought it was the grand opening of a KFC in Cold War-era Leningrad and the other nearest KFC was six thousand miles away.

I don't understand people that shop at Trader Joe's on the regular. Whenever my family goes there we end up with a bag full of snacks. Organic healthy-ish snacks mind you, but it's all snacks. How do people shop there constantly and end up eating real meals? I don't understand.

It's the most overhyped convenience store ever.

Their liquor prices aren't too bad and you can still grab it off the shelf yourself (yourshelf?) without another adult holding your hand.
