I'm not thrilled with a lot of commercial snack foods, especially those
high in calories but empty in flavor.

Chicharrones are at least low in carbs (zero)
and by no means low in flavor.

Don't have to worry about throwing it out because I don't (and have never) buy/bought it. I have brown rice on hand that I can make rice flour from if I want it.

Yeah, that's where we got on this

getting a big dog.

No, but this time you might be able to influence a decision for the
better.

If as is my theory the need is a purely
neurotic one, all the reasoning and good
sense in the world isn't going to help.

We encountered one subminiature poodle yesterday
who had this crazy fondness for collard greens and black-eyed peas.

Oh, only the daintiest of viands, no doubt.

At least on people dishes.

Mmore than just licking plates after the human has eaten off of them. My
dad used to put his cereal bowl (with a bit of milk still in it) down
for the cat de jure. it wasn't fine china, more like Pyrex tho.

Pyrex is much safer, but I did know someone who
managed to break a Pyrex dish on the first try.

Hi Michael,

I usually take the salad over the fries. C-F-A has what they call a
super foods salad (replacing the carrot raisin salad they used to have)
made with kale, raisins, nuts and not sure what's in the dressing (tho
IIRC, I think maple syrup is part of it). I'd rather have the carrot
raisin salad but this one is better than their cole slaw. I'll go with
the tossed salad sometimes to save a few pennies tho.

Fried pork rinds?

OK, about the time Upton Sinclair was getting after the big meat packing industry.

I'm thinking of the BAH-ston--heard that in the Ayer area when we were
at Fort Devens.

Or, she may decide, after looking at some big breeds, to go with
something more reasonable in size. Bichon Frises are good little dogs,
very sociable/friendly but they do need a lot of grooming to keep the
powder puff look.

Pyrex is much safer, but I did know someone who
managed to break a Pyrex dish on the first try.

These dishes were rather beat up--Dad would glue chips (if they were
from the rim areas) back on. About 10 years ago, tho, Mom broke a couple
of the bowls...........at that point, my brothers and I bought Mom and
Dad a set of Corelle wear. Not sure what happened to the Pyrex stuff; it
may have been put in the cellar until Dad moved out and then disposed
of. When the household goods were dispersed, I got the Corelle.
