Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 My mortar and pestal hunt turned into quite an adventure. The owner of the store had not yet arrived to open so an employee decided to use his key. We entered the darkened store and immediately the audio alarm sounded for the whole neighborhood to hear. *Warning motion Alarm Warning*!!! over and over. I decided that it was not in my best interest to wait for the police. I had visions of them arriving with guns drawn and throwing me to the ground and the video on the evening news. Tomorrow I will try the store again but only if the sign on the door says " open " ..LOL Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 LOL After that ordeal they should give you a mortar and pestle. That is an expensive one they are selling. I see small inexpensive ones here all the time. Try the thrift shop and even a cooking store might have a ceramic one for a good price. When you go back to the store chheck out there spices. I find really good deals on fresh spices at the middle eastern store and also the Latin markets. Be careful out there...........watch for " Open " signs.
