Harris at Penzey's Spices

[Maeve]

Several threads lately have mentioned Penzey's and their strong VOTE BLUE attitude. This link came in one of their latest emails--thought you might enjoy it!

1. I cook a lot...

at home, gourmet style often...I stock up on Penzey's Spices.... my favorite, trusted spice dealer.

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

25. I love their pepper...

... Penzy's Pepper in the purple/lavender label. YOU CAN ACTUALLY TASTE IT!

[arkielib]

30. There is no good alternative to Penzeys' pepper.

It is the best!

[wryter2000]

26. I give Penzeys at Christmas

And get all my spices from them. I love to see the little extra they put in the package.

[Maeve]

27. My daughter sent us spices for Christmas--that's how I heard about them!

[PittBlue]

2. I love this so much.

[Baltimike]

3. This is so fucking amazing, I can't. nt

[tanyev]

4. Aw, lovely.

Thanks for posting.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

5. That was beautiful.

Thank you for posting that, I'm so touched.

I hope the young woman Kamala inspired to go into consumer protection got her selfie!

[Croney]

6. She bought five spice blends! I own two of them.

I mostly buy salt-free. Love Penzey's!

"Ms. Harris bought five different spices at the store, according to her campaign: Creamy Peppercorn Dressing Base, Fox Point Seasoning, Trinidad Lemon-Garlic Marinade, Turkish Seasoning, and Tuscan Sunset Salt Free Italian Seasoning."

7. What a welcoming reception she got! She's so warm and personable, people love her.

So different than JD Vance’s awkward visit to a donut store.

8. In Bill's email this morning, he said he was "walking on sunshine".

[Tom Dyer]

9. Bill knows how to write an email.

Been buying from them for years. What a great clip.

10. Thanks for this post! Who cut up the onions? n/t

11. And it was completely ignored ...

by Pittsburgh media.

[Efilroft Sul]

18. The three Pittsburgh TV newscasts are a far cry from what they once were.

Every day, it's 11 minutes of fires, wrecks, road closures, and shootings followed by 9 minutes of weather and 2 minutes of sports.

In the 1990s and early 2000s, a lot of the senior anchors/reporters were in the camp of the Republicans (Kris Long, Scott Baker, and Meghan Jones immediately come to mind). Recently, though, Pittsburgh is a media market in decline, and the three newscasts are now overwhelmingly staffed by recent college grads who view the market as a stepping stone to something bigger and better. There's no sense of consistency with the younger talent, and they don't stick around long enough to really know the city or region. The lack of coverage of Kamala at Penzey's isn't a surprise, because I suspect the news directors are in the tank for Trump and the younger talent likely doesn't even know where the Strip District is.

20. Too many water main breaks

have washed away the TV news brains here. One station even has a "traffic expert" who couldn't find 39th Street from the 40th Street Bridge.

12. i love Penzey's

it makes me feel good when I buy my spices from them. they are proof that you can be liberal and successful.

[SCantiGOP]

13. No one in my family buys it

Because I buy it for them.
Great spices, and you can’t beat a site that trashes republicans right on their top navigation bar.
So about once a month I’ll check my cabinet and then let my 3 kids give me their orders and I get a big box for everybody.

[Botany]

14. You can't fake it she is nice. 3 different women an older woman who was crying out of joy and nerves, a law

student who was 20 something, and the young lady who the K-Bomb talked to about her school and
with respect about what she needed to do and all 3 got hugs.

She and Tim are gonna be awesome.

Btw is it dusty in here?

[irisblue]

16. Someone will be making a logo of VP Harris as a spicy girl and fast

And I will buy it

[Greybnk48]

17. The best spices out there. And Bill Penzey is a dedicated and outspoken Dem

and runs an excellent company.
I've mentioned here several times that my nephew has worked at Penzey's in Milwaukee for years, and loves it!

[niyad]

21. I had forgotten that your nephew works at Penzey's. Love it! Just placed

my latest order this morning. Figured that the clip would create quite an uptick in business.

[Upthevibe]

19. Maeve.............

Thank you for posting this..........Fantastic!

IMHO, the only thing that compares to this excitement is President Obama....

[niyad]

22. If you go to the OP from yesterday with "Harris debate prep break" in the

title, at the bottom of the OP is a ten minute video of her visit. I watched i on youtube so that I could read the comments. So many wonderful ones, and, of course, the haters.

[Maeve]

23. Thank you!

When I checked my email on my phone this morning, I knew I had to get to my computer and share the link. Glad there are longer clips!

[returnee]

24. Wow, an empathetic human...

…vs an evil robot with crossed wires. The ethical, moral, and patriotic choice is beyond question.

[getagrip_already]

28. Meh, it doesnt even compare with jd's donut stop...

I mean really, he da man. I will have whatever you humans consume.

The shop couldnt get him out fast enough.

The applause she got just walking in was tremendous. Thats one helluva of an advance team.

Seemed natural and joyful. Everyone wanted her there.

[Lovie777]

29. Is this the place where fake news was having........................

an ugly organism.

[Jeebo]

31. She is authentic.

And that orange con man who is her opponent is as phony as a three-dollar bill.
