fiberaddictJust wanted to make a note for my records: The meat market here in town is cheaper than the one we've been going to. Not quite as wide a selection, but better cuts of meat - the Rib Eyes were cut Right.In.Front.of.Us. :drools:
Also.....Borders is going out of business. SG took us by there today at lunch....BIG mistake. (Hey - I have admitted I am a book slut. LOVE books. The smell, the heft, the feel.......LOVE them.) Everything - EVERYTHING - was 50%, plus our 10% from our membership card. I got me some lovely books! (MINE. Not for the kids - for ME. :snuggles:)
And.....SG bought me a Kobo e-reader. It was $50.....and it will display .pdfs. Of which I have a TON from Homeschool Freebie of the Day.....so....yeah. I didn't really want an e-reader (I love the smell of the paper and ink. I love the soft *thunk* as you shut the book when you finish it. I LOVE sinking into a deep bubble bath to devour the latest...can't do that with an e-reader)....but at $50 I was easily convinced. We'll see...it's worth $50, as it comes with 100 novels pre-loaded ("Pride and Prejudice" is one of them.) If nothing else, we can read the freebies I have already downloaded - on the Mac, it's clunky. You have to keep scrolling. We'll see how the e-reader works.)
Gotta go clear the table, milk the goats, and get the Sabbath dinner started. Rib-eyes and smashed 'taters....:mmmmmmmm:
