So I successfully went to the market without buying the ice cream that was on sale. Edy's was 2 for $5.

Congrats I think. I never buy ice cream so is that a big deal?

I must be a good mom my boys currently hate me, but the beans are mostly cleaned and chopped

My phone is Stitch because it's an HTC 626.

please tell me you got that nifty stitch phone cover from Disney
I wanted one but sadly, they are only for iphone.
and I'm firmly on the Samsung camp

The seasonal marshmallows were in the Halloween section with the foods you can prepare for the holiday vs the Halloween candy, in our Target anyhow.

Carp. I did go to Target this morning and looked down every aisle in the Halloween section (which had multiple aisles). I did see a small "food" section (orange cupcake mix, etc.), but I didn't pay too much attention to that part as I was scouring the candy aisles--thinking the marshmallows would be there. Alas . . . No fun marshmallows for Minnie . . .

It's either they pitch in or they go hungry next week. I bought a bushel of peppers and one of green beans that needed to be chopped, vacced and frozen. The worst thing i ever did to them was making them help me chop onions to be frozen. On the way home from Disney a few years ago we took the van and found vidallias for about 25 cents a pound.(That's the reason I don't like to take my dh food shopping. He sees a deal and is worse than me as to the quantity that comes home.) At least they had safety goggles to wear. I wish my dh realized how much prep work goes into such things

Safety goggles??!! Do vidallia onions explode like tomatoes??!!

That's willpower!!! (I usually try to buy frozen yogurt instead of ice cream--some brands are so good, you think you're eating ice cream and not frozen yogurt. Try Kemps if they sell that brand in your store.)

And now I'm thinking that if I spent more time in the "cooking" Halloween side aisle, I might have found them!

Although they are less pungent than regular onions they can cause tearing if you cut up enough of them

I looked for one on Amazon, but it was a bulky, cheap phone case. I found a better one that's R2D2. Would have loved Stitch for this phone, but what can you do?

Our A&W still has the car hops. They close for the winter this weekend.

Sympathy like.
Looks like there are only 2 left in Austin proper. I remember there used to more back in the day, and they had carhops.
Sonic is pretty much Carhop King now. They're everywhere.

Watching the Ravens game and realized I'm all out of white cheddar popcorn. Today is a sad day.

Another great Sunday for Baltimore sports.

But overshadowed by the tragedy of what happened to Jose Fernandez.

Ours are in the baking aisle with the regular marshmallows.

Our area just started getting Sonic. Our closest one has parking spots where you can look down and across the valley it was built next to.

The details from the accident should be interesting. How did they hit the rocks at full speed, in nice weather, and jettison the boat that far up on the rocks? At first they said acohol wasn't a factor but now have ordered toxicology on all three.

I really like Sonic too.

Never heard of Frostop. Maybe like our Portillo's back in the early days. But I do love Fro Yo! does that count?

You bet it does.

 

[betty rose]

Going to wait until the consensus. So I know if its ok with everyone.

I understand, I love arm chair traveling with every one on here. I like to be the silent observer.
