Holy smokes. When it rains it pours and today it is pouring pure joy. I don’t have timing on this one but I’m also hearing that that prayers of Brookland have finally been answered and a Trader Joe’s is coming. I don’t know where. Maybe here?

STAY TUNED and remember this is only part one of our Trader Joe’s scuttlebutt…
