Randy constantly blogs about how cheap Aldi's is and he is right. They have their own brands and they are quite good.
I suspect that the CEO is Italian because they have so much
Italian food and such a variety. They also have surprises.
Today, I bought several hanging plants and 2 Orchids that are simply gorgeous. One is gold and one is white and pink.
I put them in a basket on the mantel and they really dress up the family room and make it look like spring. The orchids were only 9.99 each and come with instructions for
their care. I wouldn't buy everything there because the meat is mostly frozen and they don't have everything. I
am kicking myself for not buying a generator because they
had a large one for under 500. I let Ted over-rule me on
that and when we have a power outage I will point this out.

We are getting ready to go on the cruise that we missed out
on in December because of the fog. It is cold again here
after our two summery days. Even Ellie is sick of winter.
Being Russian, she is made of sterner stuff than we are.

We need ideas. Rex has been digging in the flower beds
and we need some way to keep him out of them. He doesn't
like to jump so it can be fairly low. He has to nerve himself up for the leap onto the bed. Ted bought a thousand pounds of top soil to put in them. Of course there
is no use thinking about it until we come up with some idea.
Anyone care to speculate?
