    I've actually never gone to that one, I'll have to make a point to go this year. I'm checking out the one in Forest Hills on Sunday!

    LMAO ... I'm totally a lush so I understand. I can walk to the one at Union Square and there is a Barnes and Noble and Sephora *gasp*

    Your bike is awesome BTW

    Thanks :smile:

    You just reminded me I have a $25 gift certificate for Sephora! Now I have even more of a reason to go.
    I also really like the whole foods over there, we don't have any in Queens.. at least none that I know of.

    I :heart: the greenmarkets.

    I go to the Union Sq one on my lunch break some times. I am also a total nerd and will bring scraps to compost. I'm so excited to see more vendors popping up and more fresh produce (and flowers)! Yay Spring!

    I haven't gone to that one... usually go to Union Square. I definitely have to make my way to Sunset Park one of these days.

    So true! Last night I hit up my local produce place. Strawberries, bananas, broccoli, celery, a yam and an onion = $7.35

    Love the union square one! Healthy and good for you meat is sooo expensive though :(!


    Another plus to the union sq location is that I can also stop by trader joe's :)
