I'm Concerned About the Quality of the Produce in the Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex Area!

OK, I'm not really concerned about the quality of the produce in our local markets. I just needed a vehicle in which to share my latest Photoshop creation!

So, fear not my dear readers. The produce is fine in the Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex area!

In fact, with so many grocery stores to choose from here in the Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex area, your choices for fresh fruits and vegetables are plentiful.

Gay - I just might need to do a whole food series here Gay! Thanks for the inspiration!

Sheila - It's all about the out of the box marketing for me Sheila. But in the end, no matter which way I go, the road always leads back to my website and the Raleigh/ Cary/ Apex area.

Larry & Sheila - Well, at least most fruits are sweet!!!

Laura - A good rule to live by... Never eat your friends!

Kathy - Yeah. It appears I've ruined pears for a bunch of you! So sorry about that!!!

John - Heck, I've been called worse!

Raleigh consumers looking to "pear up" with a Realtor shouldn't have to reach too high on the real estate tree...Craig Rutman is ripe for the job. ;-)

Craig, Is it my imagination, or has something gone "pear shaped"? Let's hope Activerain doesn't do the same.

I agree with Kerrie...I've never had to shave a pear before! Also, I prefer my fruit not be looking at me!

Anita - I like it! I just might have to use that line!

Kerrie - It's not a 'stache! It's one of those bar code stickers that you just peel off when washing before eating!!!

Don - We all do similar marketing on our listings and elsewhere. But, I add in these kind of pieces to try to be somewhat different and create a lasting memory.

Donna - Have you been speaking with Conrad (comment #8) again, Donna?!!

Tatyana - We're lucky to have a Trader Joe's here too. It's a regular stop for me on my weekly food shopping sprees.

Brenda - Hey, can you stop putting me next to the apple,s Brenda. I think they're planning a hit on me!!!

Sharon - See my comment to Kerrie just above! Now about that staring thing....

Hey Craig, I'm still up in Chicago, but had to let you know that's one "fruit" I don't think I'd like to take a bite of.
