Wegmans Aspagus Scam

wegmans had some great looking large aspagargus at the very reasonable price of $1.99/ lb. About 5 feet away from the display and big $1.99/lb sign was the same exact aspagus wrapped in celephane on styrofoam trays.

If you look carefully you see that the price is astronomically higher. The smaller pack was $4.99/lb. The larger pack was $3.99/lb. Surely the little styrofoam tray and plastic wrap can't be that expensive.

My feeling is that this is a scam for people that don't carefully pay attention as much as I do. You walk in, see the $1.99/lb sign. decide you want more than one bunch worth so you pick up a tray and bam - $3.00 extra dollars per pound. I think most people would have assumed the larger amount woukd be cheaper if anything. Its not like they had a sign saying $4.99/lb above those items.

Snow in April

I hope that snow was the last we see for a long time. I wonder if the pear tree will fruit because the blossoms got snowed on.

Hayes Fish Market

At Hayes fish market in Kenmore they have some great fried shrimp. I had this for lunch on the way back from the dentist yesterday. There were actually more shrimp than you see as I had eaten a bunch before I realized I should take a pig.

Ship Canal Commons

Its amazing how much the Ship Canal Commons has transformed the space it occupies. It's amazing how disgusting it used to be back in the day and how much crap went in the water. Its especially gross because like most of the heavy industry around there, its directly upstream of our water intake.

Anyways, it seems much nicer now. I wonder what types of businesses will end up occupying the location.

I also wonder how all the trees planted in rocks are going to survive?

Spring Cleaning

We literally cleaned from the moment we woke up until 5 minutes ago. I steam cleaned all the floors and Terry even washed all the curtains and blinds. I finally emptied out the closet under the stairs. I had waited so long to have a home for the vacuums. At the very back of the very bottom of it I found the key for he drill that I lost maybe the first week we moved here in 2006. I was almost at the point of throwing out the drill. I am glad I didn't.

I must have emptied out 10 giant canisters of dust from the vacuum.

Itchin for crabs

I had a pleasant dinner with a bib at Joe's Crab Shack on maple last night around 8:30. I had the Crab daddy bucket for $30.

It was the first time I ever ate crab until I was full. There was dungeoness, king and snow crab and possibly another kind called queen crab all in a buttery herb sauce. I even had a king crab leg leftover and I hadn't eaten since breakfast.

The pot also came with potatoes and corn and I got a house salad. I wanyed tt take a pic but my hands were wau too greasy.
