As we often bemoan the absence of a Trader Joe’s and a Central Market or HEB - let’s be real - Denton is chock full of grocery stores. We’ve got 3 Krogers (the hellish one on University, the giant one on 288, and the fancy one on Teasley), an Albertsons, 3 Walmarts (the old one on 288, the new one holding down Rayzor Ranch, and the cute little neighborhood one on Teasley), a Super Target, a WinCo, Natural Grocers, the Cupboard, Aldi, Sprouts, La Azteca and La Michoacana. That doesn’t even count Sam’s Club, which is the best place to buy your giant jar of pickles. But there is one grocer that often flies under the radar, and isn’t often mentioned - Drug Emporium. Read on to find out why Drug Emporium is actually one of our favorite places to shop, and what you should keep your eyes peeled for.

We're more ready for the weekend on this drizzly Friday morning. Maybe its because we started our weekend a little early at the Paul Slavens Anniversary Show at Dan's last night. While we don't regret that, we certainly are in need of some coffee and softer tunes this morning.
Luckily our friend Eric Edwards AKA Fishboy just sent us this video of Zedidiah Word covering that ages old Damien Jurado tune, Denton, TX, to help liven our morning. The video is simple, but wonderful. It kind of reminds us of that moment when the kid filmed the video of the grocery bag whipping in the wind in American Beauty, but less annoying in retrospect.
Anyway, we're glad to have this to ease into our weekend.
What are you up to this weekend? Keep us posted by tagging your tweets and 'grams with #WDDI and your pics may show up on a post next Monday.
