Bite this

I went into Whole Foods for one thing (even though I know I can't do that). It might have been non-chlorine diapers or some lotion from Burt's Bees. It doesn't matter. I ended up getting some all-natural Italian soda, soy milk, dinner for the husband, some chips and other items -- including an apple that the Man-cub grabbed off the display and started eating. (The cashier gingerly took the pock-marked apple from me to weigh and price it, then gave it back with a forced pleasant face.)

I ended up with four bags of stuff -- and it cost more than $92!

Soon to come: a self-published cookbook on a week's worth of meals you can make with Saltine crackers....
