Just Desserts
Started my new position today at KeyRelevance, and decided to treat myself tonight to a little after-dinner celebration. Like this:
Believe it or not, this actually tasted better than it looks….
Free Tacos at Jack-In-The-Box Tomorrow
Jack In The Box is giving away two free tacos tomorrow to anyone who shows up with a gas receipt. The idea is … gas costs so much now, let’s cushion the blow with free food. (click the image for more info)
I like JitB and I like their tacos, but there’s no restaurant close enough to make this work. The money I’d spend in gas driving to the nearest Jack In The Box would offset the money saved by eating free tacos.
How about a Jack In The Box in West Richland, gang???
The Best Grapes in the World
Here’s a little food advice from me to you, something you can take advantage of on that grocery store visit you’ll be making this weekend: If you like grapes (and who among us doesn’t?), you need to know that
- the best grapes in the world come from Chile, and
- they’re probably in your store now, but won’t be around much longer.
I’m sure it has to do with planting seasons and geography and all that, but Chilean grapes are always the first ones to arrive in your store’s produce section. California grapes will be there soon, but California grapes don’t taste nearly as good as Chilean grapes. Trust me.
So, buy yourself some Chilean grapes — and the really, really sweet ones have a nice, yellowish tint to them (kinda like the image above).
You’re welcome.
Two Tastes That Don’t Taste Great Together
Foods that belong together: Peanut butter and jelly. Cheeseburgers and fries. Bacon and eggs. Fish and chips. Steak and potatoes. Spaghetti and meatballs. Chicken and rice. Ice cream and … anything.
Foods that don’t belong together: Potato chips crisps and dill pickles.
The folks at Pringles never got the memo, and now we have a canister of “Screamin’ Dill Pickle Extreme Pringles” on our kitchen counter. (MrsMattMcGee.com bought these.)
I love Pringles, but these are inedible. Consider yourself warned. We spent the $1.25 so you won’t make the same mistake. You’ll thank me later.
