Organic grass fed beef sirloin
Category: food
How is the coop going to compete with this? Wegmans now has organic grass fed beef at such a great price, and it looks really good too.

These two cost $7.60. Considering that each one is enough beef for a
whole meal, that is a pretty good deal.

It's also super tender.

Interesting question. I *never* buy protein at the Co-op.

Applework smoked bacon chocolate
Category: food
They have the Vosges bacon chocolate at wegman's now. I can't begin
to tell you what a crazy adventure I took while in Vegas to get some
for (e:mike)'s birthday.

The shedding tool?
Category: pets
We just saw this by the cash register at pet supplies plus on
Deleware. Each person that walks by does a double take. What can it
possibly do for $50. Does it come with "happy ending" LOL. Somehow I
think I might have written about this before.

Winter In Buffalo Pics
Category: buffalo
As a side note, I also updated the pics from the trip to the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens (e:paul,47265)

Why do people always use the snow on our porch as an ashtray. I can't stand smokers of filtered cigarettes that leave their butts everywhere. They do not biodegrade. I am fine with rollies being left around, but the plastic filter thing is redic. The lack of responsibility smokers take in their trash disposal is astounding. (E:iriesara) being an exception as I saw her storing her butts in her purse.

I walk to work every day and the path is usually covered in snow. Depending on how fresh it is, it is in many differnt states.

Clean Snow

It was so cold that day, the door got ice in the hinge which froze it open.

Dirty Snow
Two days later, it started raining a bit and warmed up. You guys probably remember seeing it was only like a week ago. This made for messing sloshy, muddy, scum snow.

I like walking to work. While other people are whining over how tough it is to dig their cars out of ice, drive on ice etc, I don't have any such problems. Hehehe. I feel smug being able to walk!

I hate dirty snow. I think I would hate winter less if snow was never dirty.

Korean vegtable?
Category: food
We ate at Korea house the other day and had the Korean barbaque. It's so awesome, you sit around the grill while the matronly Korean lady cooks your food. Then you get letuce leaves and rice along with a
multitude of side dishes from kimchee to radish and fish cakes. You take all the side dish things and put them on the rice with the meat and then wrap it all in a lettuce leaf, kind of like a lettuce taco.

God, it is so tasty. Anyhow, this time they had something she refered to ask Kohare. At least I think so. It was a delicious vegtables that resembled some sort of plant stem. Does anyone know about it? I want more.
