Now tagless for your comfort.

Why are groceries so damned expensive?

Wish I knew. It used to be "food's the one luxury we can afford." Now, not so much.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Thelma is gorgeous!

thessaly has a line in one of her poems that I just love. It's something like, "I want groceries to stop being a major investment." I just feel like, I'm one freaking person. How much does it really need to cost to feed *me*? Of course, I did buy a big bag of Toto's food today, so that didn't help. But, still.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oooohhh, Thelma is all shiny and pretty!

Groceries are insane. It's just me and a cat, but our grocery bill always seems crazee high. And it's not like I'm buying steaks and prime cuts of meat. I'm getting basics.

Speaking of which, I need to get outta here and run errands. Including groceries.

Oh, man. My dogs go through about 30 lbs of dog food a month. And it's expensive because Mac's got a techy tummy. It costs over $1/lb. I keep threatening to make them get jobs.

Thanks, guys! Me loves Thelma. My dad was all nervous, because she's "cinnamon" red, not "red" red, but I think she's just perfect.

Yeah. I'm lucky with Toto. His food is about $20 for the big bag, but it lasts him a couple of months. But, he's little. Of course, this doesn't count the little 5 pound bag of "treat" food (that's like $15) I have to give him before he goes to bed, because he usually doesn't eat dinner, and then he pukes. So, it still adds up.

Yes, our dog and cats defintely eat higher quality food than we do.

Our wings are not tired.

Red! and shiny! I could make a comparison to Giles car that replaced the Citroen, but I won't.
