Odd.

The burger I bought tonight looked and felt... better?  Yes, yes it did.  It fried strangely, though.  It was 80% lean, so 20% fat, but cooked up like 93%.  I wonder if they mixed up the packages, or if they are pulling fat "for our own good".  These cunts always get that shit wrong.  All I know is I wasn't really impressed.  Hoping it was just a mix-up.  Though, at least I didn't buy a lot of it.  Just a three to four pound pack.

I didn't check the other meats in the fridge.  I can do that now.  Whatever is bad will go out now... or... when I check shortly.  Anything good... I'll pick something from among it and get that ready.  It's been a while since I have eaten properly.  I am so hoping one of the steaks is still good.

I did have a pack of the raspberries.  Two packs for four dollars, I... had to do it.  Often they are that much per pack.  Or more.  And these looked, and were/are, good.

If none of that meat is good, I can griddle burger crumble, spice it well, and add it to salad.  I bought a bigger pack.  This time taking care to not buy the one that was about at the end of it's time.  Some things you can slide, regarding dates.  Canned veggies of some sorts, things like that.  But milk?  Salads?  Even cheeses?  No.  They are doa at their sell-by date.  Or even a bit before.  So, this time I didn't waste... too much money.  Those things are 150% the price they were last summer.  Ugh.  Oh, I did get avocado at a good price, but they are bricks... is why.  If they are bricks, or rotting, you can get them cheap.  The near to just over are exorbitant.  

And organic?  They can't be making any money on organic.  NO ONE buys those things anymore!  Prices are sliding and still, they just sit and rot.  They must be subsidized.  We need to choke our government off from "helping" us (helping crony friends, family, and political allies more like).  Gah!

Oh, but I am certainly looking forward to more food.  I think I have sour cream left, and cheese for on top.  Makes for a wonderful taco salad.  Even if the burger is a bit... tight.  Hmm, adding butter to the frying would add some good fat.  That is terribly needed.

At least the young folk working the store weren't rude, or... strange... tonight.  I do chatter like a bird.  Sometimes they don't take it well, sometimes they chatter back as if I was an old family friend.  Tonight was quite pleasant.  A young lady, and a young gent.  It passes the moments, and... you never know.  Sometimes you hear something new, interesting.  And, life is so much better with simple kindness.  I think so, and they must have thought so, and trusted me enough to entertain the notion.  The young man, at first, was a bit... defensive.  Protective?  Of the young lady?  But, he came around.  I suppose when he realized I wasn't a used car salesman, or predator?  I get that, didn't mind a bit.  Thought it was cute.  If I were, he wouldn't have had a chance.  But... I... like that he is... like that.  I was a puppy once too!  Growled, and bit, as I thought I must.  All good.

Well... on to... seeing about food.  Good evening, perhaps goodnight.  Might get to bed sooner.  We'll see.
