I tried their brownie and soup for the first time two summers ago because we got coupons for them at a local community event. We've been coming ever since and have also enjoyed the salad bar, produce, ice cream, bakery items, and fresh squeezed juices. They offer samples of their freshly squeezed fruit juices (honeydew, watermelon, apple and more!) as well as their balsamic vinegars and olive oils. The staff is always friendly and the food and produce good! Bonus; they carry my favorite Julian area pie, the mango apple pie from California Mountain Bakery!

I've been meaning to check out Origins Grocer for years now but since I'm from Orange County it was…read morealways a bit of a trip when I had som local options. Unfortunately, the refill scene in OC is no longer what it once was and we barely have any options left. So, I decided to finally make the trek down with my empty jars, and I'm glad I did! They had a wide selection of both edible goods and cleaning/body supplies. I love it when stores have both so it can be a one stop shop for all refilling needs. The space was very busy but there was a coffee pop up inside the shop so I wasn't surprised. Regarding their selection, it had most of what I expected but also a few interesting items in the fridge and fresh baked goods from a local brand. I truly love shopping at refill stores because if I only need a bit of one ingredient I can get exactly what I need and don't have to worry about waste if I don't like it. My total for everything I got was just over $20 and I was stocked up with everything I was looking for. I can't wait to come back!

I've missed having a good ol' corner store (and for those who know... a corner store doesn't…read moreactually need to be on a corner). This place brought that feeling back in the best way. I came in looking for something else, but there was way more than I expected. You can purchase meats by the pound, the shelves stacked with all kinds of unique and ethnic snacks (cucumber chips, anyone?). Sure the motor oil next to the diapers and pasta sauce is next to the Fabuloso but if they ain't got it, you don't need it. Usually, corner store cashiers aren't exactly known for being chatty, but here it was the opposite. Big shoutout to the dude who helped me pick out snacks as we had a great conversation, and it made the stop even better. Ultimately, I walked out with $30+ in snacks. I needed bratwurst Pringles, hot pot flavored chips, seaweed, and more stuff I haven't found anywhere else. Even though it's 15 minutes away, this is my corner store now. Welp onto the next!

The machine never rings up the sale tag price - it's no error at this point - he acts like he's a favor to correct it when I show the tag. Today, the wine they tried to overcharge me for was spoiled, yellow and sour, I had to dump it. Not worth going back when they make it so unpleasant to try and be a regular at my corner spot.

Looking on amazon.com I found some window insulation. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DSHVSFYX?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 It was reflective like aluminum foil.  I found it to be thin and have similar insulation quality as a double layer of aluminum foil.  It is pretty flimsy and tricky to keep in place against the screen. Not awesome but I like it better than aluminum foil. On the left side of the window I have 3 1 inch sheets of foam insulation and on the right side I have a double layer of the aluminum window insulation plus a sunshield. I took some temperature measurements. wunderground.com temp for area 87F wall 79F window with 3 layers of 1 inch foam insulation 82F window with aluminum window insulation plus sunshield 84F So far using 3 inches of foam insulation is the best insulation I've found.  I'm going to keep looking for better insulation for this troublesome window.
