Cheap, ugly, delicious

posted in food, politics |

In a flurry of other activity, I happened to do some comparison shopping today. Online, without the guidance of a seasoned professional. It turns out that getting from “here to there” costs almost double when comparing rail to air. Of course, there’s no need to take of my sneakers, or endure cloud watching from my window, but… Did the landportation firms not get the message? They no longer have a near monopoly on warm seats in chairs.

Outside, briefly. Barefoot in the grass, while admiring the stainfest from yesterday. The lawn actually works; I might be able to save a few klicks on my sneakers, assuming I find another reason to wander around outside. Can’t right now, what with the showers, but since summer doesn’t end for another couple of evenings, anything is possible.

Recently, at the market, I spotted a cold counter of bacon, on sale at $2 per package. The reason for the more than enticing price appears to be cosmetic; this bacon was downright homely, with nary a straight edge in view. Doesn’t matter, in the BLT world. After all, did you ever see a strip of pork cook in a geometric manner? We made the sandwiches, and they were very good.

Tomorrow, another potential prime minister in the province. That makes FOUR! Still not enough to have me standing and cheering in a public place. These people want to be MY employee, right? Let them do the happy dance. I’m going to wait until my ballot is cast and counted before showing any emotion.
