New to Bay Area

Hi All,

I've been a silent reader of many Indus Ladies threads for the past few months & wanted to say how great the various contributions are - great job everyone!!

My husband and I just moved to the Bay Area last weekend (Memorial Day) from Phoenix, AZ, so I thought this forum would be a great place to meet new people and make friends. We are currently living in Santa Clara & are just settling in to the new place. So far its been great.......except for being surrounded with boxes!

Any insights any of you can provide with respect to local grocery stores, Indian stores, Farmers Markets etc will be really helpful to us :) .....and ofcourse, if there are any Indian associations that any of you are members of, please let me know. I just signed up for the Bay Area Tamil Manram group today.

Looking forward to contributing more, making new friends & meeting new people :)

You'll see me regularly from now on!
