I will have to look for Weight Watcher's soda. I bet it is carried on the north side. My sister told me the other day that thee are whole stored devoted to low-carb cooking on the north (trendy) side of town.

Our side of town is always the LAST to get retailers like that. The north side spends money like water. Southsiders are tight-fisted. LOL!

LOL! I just remembered a dream I had almost 15 years ago.

It was our first year in China and we lived on the south side of the big city of Chengdu (about 8 million). Goods were not plentiful then and most stores carried the very same things which limited variety.

One night I dreamed that I ventured out on my bicycle to the north side and found large grocery stores and a Burger King and Pizza Hut and everything imaginable. What a weird dream that was to wake up from. But I couldn't resist going up there just to see if it might be true!

BTW, when I read the Atkins book, I think I disregarded the thing about aspertame because at that time I never drank soda except maybe once a month. And it was a friend I had got started on Atkins who told me about the Equal tablets so it never occurred to me that it was a no-no. I guess it's a good thing I've already switched over to Splenda.

Now I really am going out to do the fencing.

Did my walk along the beach and guess what, ole Jasper is back. He seemed pleased to see me, did not fly off when I walked towards him and musta gotten 5 feet from him. I was afraid that he had been killed, they caught some teenagers riding down the beach drive shooting cranes a pelicans with a 22.
