I left Monterey Market today in a foul mood.

In the old days, I found Monterey Market a calming, cheering experience. I LOVED to shop there.

But these days, produce is moved higglety piggelty all over the place. Every time I go, it's different, w/ little rhyme/reason. More stuff seems jammed in. I can't find what I'm looking for. I forget stuff that I meant to buy, because I didn't see it. And my nerves end up jangled.

It's a dilemma. The produce is great. But the ambience is no longer a happiness.

I wonder if others have similar feelings.
