    Do you know you can tell how bad the economy is by how many pretzels are in your Chex mix? The worst the economy, the more pretzels in the bag. The bag I opened the other day had tons more pretzels than usual.

    I know because I don't like pretzels unless they are chocolate covered. So I pull them out. I do drizzle melted chocolate over them so they won't go to waste.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Hmmm, interesting! I wonder why that is? Are pretzels less expensive than the other ingredients in Chex mix?

    MoFF, do you have a Trader Joe's by you? I LOVE their dark-chocolate covered pretzels. Yummmmm! The more times I shop at Trader Joe's, the more I like it. They have good frozen fish options.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I have a Trader Joe's right by my work. They have good stuff!

    I've had a tough week. I think it's time for a Hurricane, and some jambalaya!

    I think pretzels are less expensive than the cereals in the mix. A box of cereal is over $4 here but a bag of pretzels is around a dollar.

    No Trader Joe's here. Never heard of him. Sounds interesting though. I'd love for someone to give Walmart a run for their money here.

    Well, it is pretty early in the morning to start eating.......but those crawdads look absolutely yummy. But then - MOFF has those chocolate drizzled pretzels..........decisions ...decisions!

    I can't wait until daylight savings begins again - I don't like it when we have to "fall back".

    It's in the book of Adverbs.

    Have never been to Mardi Gras and since I'm still having work done on my house (bathroom's done; YES!), I've been cooking quick and easy, so it's sloppy joes and chocolate milk for me. (I know....)
    Blessings,
