re: Mussels in White Wine

I was exploring Albertsons for the first time after moving to Baton Rouge, looking to make my first dinner. Albertsons has a sack of PEI mussels, so I decided to go with them because they're very easy to prepare. In my hand basket, I simply had the sack of mussels, a clove of garlic, one shallot, parsley, and some white wine. I got to the checkout and was told that I couldn't purchase the wine because it was a Sunday. Knowing that I couldn't really make mussels without the wine, I told her to cancel the transaction.

Baton Rouge and I got off on the wrong foot, and it never got better.
