Grocery shopping on base is just a little bit different...

In doing so, I have access to quite a good selection of food from home, and of course, lots of GMO food, high fructose corn syrup, food dyes, etc....erm, I mean, a lot of things I find familiar. I've definitely been happy to be able to still buy MorningStar Farms stuff as well as frosting for those cupcakes I (still) need to make for my coworkers.

A big difference between this and the regular grocery stores in the States is this:

I haven't seen any other stores that reserve parking spaces for Officers :)
