DR John G. is definitely not sitting around today.
I went through a li'l rice pudding phase a few years ago. It was before Covid, when I was getting frequent takeout meals from Stew Leonard's. They always had rice pudding in their salad & dessert section, and I always filled a container with it and added a lot of raisins. After the pandemic they cut that whole takeout area down to a fraction of its former size, and frankly, I don't even know what the offerings are any more because the new prices are ridiculous. Last time I looked they were charging ten bucks a pound, or more, for whatever you'd take. I can remember a couple of decades ago when it was - I kid you not - three dollars. It was three dollars for quite a while, and when they first opened the department, they ran it at $2.49/lb initially. Ah, the old days.
Happy Saturday to all!Tis a beautiful morning in Johnston SC. Temperature is currently 74 degrees. Doesn't that sound moderate?

DANCING COMPETING VIBES FOR DR JOHN!
But I wouldn't mind getting back to some rice pudding and raisins again. I found it to be a refreshing and delightful sweet-but-not-too-sweet treat.

I read something that said Washington now has higher gas prices than Oregon. I searched thinking Oregon prices might have been why our price yesterday was so high.

I found it to be a refreshing and delightful sweet-but-not-too-sweet treat.I'm not a fan of raisins (but I don't mind a good oatmeal raisins cookie ), but I don't like the texture of the rice in rice pudding. I do love me some tapioca pudding, though.

I searched thinking Oregon prices might have been why our price yesterday was so high.There was an article a few weeks ago (at least) that said Washington had the highest average price of gas in the nation.
I don't remember if that included Alaska and Hawaii, though...probably not.
It's been sprinkling a bit this morning!
Because so many Canadians come to my town just to buy our cheaper gas, the price is listed by the liter. So I just pretend it’s by the gallon so I feel like I’m getting a real steal.
