She's bought stuff in Walmart that hasn't existed in fifty years

That reminds me...I don't know how I got on this mailing list, but every so often I get this catalog. It's like a retail museum! If it comes in a can, they have it, including haggis. It's the strangest catalog ever!

Vermont Country Store.

I'll tell ya Vermont might be a progressive backwater hick state, but the food is out of this world. World class Chefs come to these little Inns and Tavens to Cook.

See ya after HK since I don't have a way to watch and post at the same time...Drats!

I get that catalogue, too. They have stuff that hasn’t been in the stores for decades!

RK, I think you’ll appreciate this story. I was shopping the Internet for my favorite English tea (Typhoo — which actually is kind of amusing in itself, because Typhoo is the British equivalent of Lipton’s, and here I am jonesing for it and buying it imported!), and it turned out the place I finally bought it from had other Brit items as well — canned foods and cookie tins and whatnot. I bought one of them to take to my club’s Christmas exchange. What was it? Drum roll please ... it was canned Spotted Dick.

Who knew? ;)
