market street

My daughter surprised me over the weekend and drove to Amarillo to see me for Mother’s Day. I was not expecting this at all. When she comes to town I like to take her grocery shopping so she has new recipes and plenty of meals when she goes home.

I have lived in Amarillo for a big portion of my life. I know how construction can be. It seems it is never over. It’s part of life that we jus have to deal with. Once it is done then in a certain area it gets better but while it is going on it can seem just the longest.

I left the radio station yesterday and had to make a stop at Walgreens on Georgia to pick up a prescription. I looked at my gas gage and saw I had 130 miles until empty. Since I would be right by Market Street I would stop and get gas. Why not?

Amarillo Crime Stoppers have announced their annual document shredding day and it could not come at a better time.

I feel like I am a constant fixture at two places near my house. I live at Market Street United and the Walgreens on Georgia. Those are my go-to places. Just stopping at those two places can get me anything I need for the week.

It's been crazy to watch the price of gas through all of this covid-19 outbreak. I went to Dallas and the cheapest I paid was $1.04 per gallon. I thought that was crazy. Crazy enough that I had to stop and fill up even if I could have made it all the way home.

I ran to Market Street last night. I needed to get some food for my weekly food prep. I walked in and saw the glorious Monopoly Game has started.

So have you gone shopping in the past month or so? Have you seen the great pots and pans you can get for already shopping at United Stores?

Get ready to try some Texas favorites at this year's Taste of Texas Expo at United Market Street in Amarillo.

So play monopoly at Market Street and United. You can win free stuff and huge prizes, heck, I would be happy with just winning $5.

The Texas Panhandle Craft Beerfest is coming quickly.  Will you be ready?
