The value of the meat packages cannot be beat.  These guys have no problem substituting things that you don't want.  The wait is never long, and they even give you a free sack of potatoes (who can pass up free food?!) with purchase.  I don't purchase any seafood from them (it is a bit overpriced) but for poultry, beef and pork North Side cannot be beat.

Choice Meat Market

A friend insisted that this was one of the better meat markets in the Oakland area.  Sadly I cannot agree.  I chose a reasonable meat packet (a little over $60) and the few pieces of meat that I cooked from this order had a funny taste (I tried some of the chicken on one day, and the turkey wings on another).  I don't know if the meat that they gave me was tainted - but even my husband noticed.  I threw everything away for fear of food poisoning (note: I did not get food poisoning but because the meat tasted bad I was not going to take a risk) and have not been back since.

This review is for the laundromat - JK Laundry

Ok, so I needed to wash two huge comforters that would not fit in a standard sized machine.  I came here and this place looks like it has not been given any renovations, or even general attention and maintenance since it opened.  The first row of washers had two machines out of order.  The second row had one.  The third also had one.  I finally stopped counting the out of order machines.  

I realized I forgot dryer sheets so I put my money in to the vending machine to buy a box and what do you know - nothing comes out.  I moved that stupid selection lever about 20 times and kept banging the machine but still nothing.  I go next door (to JK Cleaners) and the guy at the counter says there is nothing he can do, as he is not the owner.  Okkkkaayyyy, but you work here so you must have a phone number or contact info, right?  He does not even try to give me the information.  It's not even about the money - it's about principle.  I will never, ever, evereverever come here again.  If I had the option to leave NO STARS trust me I would have.

What do you know about Exotic aroma oil and candles; and coconut body butter?  If the answer is nada, you need to come to The Body Shop.  Guaranteed to set the mood!

SFO has always been my preferred airport in the Bay Area, but now with the BART connection it is even sweeter.  How convenient to leave my car parked with a relative and take the train directly to the terminal!  It sucks that there is no free Wi-Fi (and the rate to connect from here is outrageous and overpriced), however many of the restaurants stay open till midnight, which is a plus.  I usually board with Delta or AA and to date have had no delays.  Baggage claim can be a bit slow but overall still a great airport.

Minneapolis - St Paul International Airport

This airport is one of the larger I've been in.  I had a Northwest flight and this was one of two (yes, two) layovers.  It was colder than a witches tit in here, and I had on a sweater and a jacket!  Our plane had to be de-iced, so we were stuck at the tarmac waiting to take off for over an hour (minus one star) and upon my return flight there was a delay so I missed my connection (minus another star).  Overall it's an ok airport, but I know better to use this as a connecting point during the winter months.

Miami International Airport

A lot of people complain about MIA, however I've never had a bad experience flying international from here so I can't.  There are many places to eat, little shops and boutiques to blow your hard earned cash, and even outlets to charge your laptops or cell phones (a huge plus).

I've always had a short wait to get through security, and the employees were honest and helpful (I lost my wallet and the employee tracked me down and gave it to me - with all of my money in it).

The women's restrooms needed some serious attention (a mop, bleach, and Lysol - minus one star) but I've seen worse at the local gas station.  It only takes me about 45 minutes to get from MIA to Montego Bay so that's another bonus for me.  I hope my luck continues when flying from this airport.

Jamaica Station has been closed for years - which is too bad because it was my local hangout spot.  The drinks were reasonably priced, food was good, and after hours the music and people kept the vibes nice.

The 1.50 scoops can't be beat, and I'm a multi-scoop girl.  One scoop of strawberry, one of cookies and cream, and one Oreo cookie scoop with two spoons to share with my son makes my day.  There is outside seating, but with Todos Santos Park directly across the street all you need is your ice cream and a blanket to sit on, and it's all good.
