Yeah, I had no idea until recently what all you new-fangled parents were talking about when you were talking about cloth diapers.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Plus, I just don't like Albertsons.I really don't much either. Especially after remembering all of that about Heaton. But it was the only store nearby that would give me firelogs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Honestly, Cass, I realized how judgy my post sounded as I got all high horse about Heaton. But in reality, I like Albertson's less than I did when they were Luckys, but more than Ralphs.
The red velvet cookies we made are sub par.

So, my stupid DVR only recorded the last 16 minutes of Swingers. Annoying!

Now tagless for your comfort.
sarameg, those teeny bowls could be individual butter dishes. Some china have those as part of place settings. Very pretty, too!
There is a Planet of the Apes marathon on AMC tonight.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I dislike Albertsons even as I patronize them. They are the only grocery store within walking distance so unfortunately they're going to see a lot more of my business as I strive to walk more in the new year. I think the best thing they ever did was install automated check outs so I could do all my shopping without talking to anyone. The store does look cleaner but the people are more helpful which means my non-interactive shopping experience has gotten a lot trickier. Maybe I should see how long it takes to walk back and forth to Trader Joes. Which is hilarious because everyone at trader joes is talky but coming from Albertsonians it's robot may-I-help-you talk and coming from the Joesies it's I'm-really-glad-you're-here-so-much-so-that-I-can-tell-you-in-my-own-words type talk.

Well, yeah, jesse, especially as the last 16 minutes are NOT the business!

How fawncy! But they are adorable. And have butterflies in the bottom, in addition to the parakeets and flowers around the outside. The larger dishes have those, more elaborate butterflies, hummingbirds and wren and sparrow like birds. I told my mom that since I wasn't planning on doing anything marriage/wedding like, this would be my choice of "china." And she obliged! Hell, each plate is probably more expensive than usual plates. But I figure in a long, long while, I'll inherit her more traditional wedding china (which is just lovely and I've not seen its kind since: pale cream bone, with a matte black inch wide scallopped ring around the outside and the edge is silvered) and my grandmother's, so...
Albertson's is about the only grocery store besides WalMart in my home town. There's Fiesta Foods, but if that's a chain, it is a small one: only one store. There used to be a lot more before WalMart invaded.It really blitzed even regional chains.
