Well, after reading the glowing reports on Penzy’s, I searched it and they have a store in Houston. We live in one of the ‘burbs about 40mi. north ot there. I have not ventured into the heart of Houston yet, just some places near the various freeways on the skirts. We may have to visit there and load up, particlarly on pickeling supplies.

I really like The Spice House. Small family run, they grind their own spices. Huge selection. Related to Penzy family, but really have a far superior product.

The Penzey's Houston store is in The Heights and easy to get to from the loop. Please, please, please ... let me know how divine it smells in there after you go visit. I've been ordering Penzey's since I lived in Houston, but I left in 1999. Wish they had that store back then.

Their pickling spice is excellent.
