A Lamentation

A life full of party leftovers is a life without a reason to go to the grocery store. And now my life lacks its organizing principle. I'd do other people's grocery shopping. I bought Greg a bottle of Cholula, but that has been delivered now. I went to 4 stores because I didn't care for the price at the first one and the second one didn't have it and the third only had weird flavors. C-Town had it for $3/bottle, which is the lowest you'll ever find it anywhere.

On Assignment: Find Franks

Since Thanksgiving left me in a bit of a food and shopping hangover, hardly even hungry enough to cook, I've cut back on my visits to grocery stores. I'm trying to end that because on Saturday night I made the stupidest soup out of what little I could find. It had macaroni, black beans, yogurt, spiciness, and salt. I did better yesterday with chili. It helps when people ask me grocery questions so I have some purpose when perusing the stores. Today Kristy asked me where to find Hillshire Farm Lit'l Smokies. I don't think I've ever seen them.

Well, Kristy. Here's my best result so far. I found Nathan's beef cocktail size franks at Key Food. I suppose they could work, but at $5.29 for 14 oz. I don't think they are a very good deal.

Some other slightly interesting recent finds after the jump.
