The Tao of Steve

Oh, San Fernando Valley, to quote Merril Streep in The Devil Wears Prada…”You dissapoint me!”

Usually I cite you as the paragon of all things KLP, or at least most stores have a rockin’ KLP section.

Please explain to me how your KLP supplies are worse than Portland, Oregon, which, I have to admit, THE SAFEWAY on Barbur Blvd. has an awesome KLP section! 😉

Today I went to the local Ralph’s in search of Horseradish for my Cousin’s Seder tomorrow night. Now of course, you could say that it is my fault, if I was looking for horseradish the day before the Seder.

We walked all over that damn store.Of course to the KLP section which to quote Detective John Kimble in Kindergarten Cop, “”Stop whining! You kids are soft. You lack discipline!” had Zilch.

Then, we looked in all the non-obvious spaces like end-cap displays, the refrigerated section (Yes I know, this stuff has a shelf life akin to a Twinkie, and will survive nuclear winter, why would it need to be refrigerated?)

A very nice clerk was walking all over the store with me looking for the stuff and she was about to head to the back room to see if they had taken it off the shelf, strangely enough, the night of the Seder (maybe they had a surplus of Hanukkah candles they had to move next week?)

FINALLY hidden in one of the bottom shelves of the refrigerated section, I found my horseradish, both red and white. They did a fantastic job of camouflaging it!

Mission Accomplished I ended my shopping trip there.

You did not live up to your sterling reputation, San Fernando Valley… 🙄😉
