Everyone getting ready for or watching the game? I don't even pick up anything on my TV, so even if I was a fan, I'd have to be elsewhere...which I ain't. But I have the first episode of the BBC version of Nicholas Nickleby and some pretty good food. For dinner, I'm making chicken, which again isn't as good as beef...but it was four bucks for a hugh package. Half of it is in the freezer and half is sitting in the fridge in a yogurt sauce with lots of garlic, fresh ginger, onion, and a little sesame oil. Going to cook it up in half an hour or so.

Plus I have eggses for later this week, and got the GOOD ones. Local. With a better taste and much stronger shells and yolks than the ones from the bigger store. I notice a difference...which is why I keep buggin' 2J about the taste and texture differences she notices with her chickens' eggs.

And sausage was the special this week - again, local stuff, from a place that makes really good stuff. Life is good.

OK, so I get rather over-excited about groceries. It's not a bad thing to get a lot of joy out of the stupid, simple things in life, is it? ;-)

Did I mention I even got sardines in mustard, from the company 2J likes? Those'll be a treat!

I happen to think groceries are fun! I'd go shopping more often if'n it didn't mean going to ~town~.

Nope, not watching the game here. Just got back from my walk, and Hair is out cleaning stalls. Got Arsenic and Old Lace from Netflix, and will watch that soon.

How were they? I haven't had the mustard ones yet. I like it that the company is so proud to be American. Most of the canned fish companies are Asian, I believe...
