It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like ... Christmas?????
This is what we woke up to today... April 19!!! Snow!!! Apparently an arctic cold front swept down and dropped this on us. And to think that earlier this week, I walked home from work in short sleeves!
Knitting this week has been minimal again, but with the snow may come the urge to work on something cozy again.
Yesterday was a strange day; at least, it was for John. On his bike ride to work, he fell. It seems he cracked a rib, hit his knee pretty hard and skinned the knuckles on one hand. He'll be alright, but is in more pain than he usually is. I'm thankful he wasn't more seriously hurt.
After he got home, he went across the street to the grocery store to pick up a few things for dinner. He came home with the fixings for our feast (potato, broccoli and steak) for under $5.
Why am I telling you about our dinner? Well, someone made a mistake... check this out.
That's how much steak was in the package. Two lovely top sirloin steaks. John said that other packages with a similar amount of steak were up to $16.
$3.00! This was, apparently, the only package priced wrong and, of course, they have to give it to you for the labelled price. And, in all honesty, there's enough steak there for two meals for us. I like steak, but I didn't even eat half of mine! All for $3.00!!

Pretty nice birthday-eve dinner, Ev. Happy b-day! Hope the rest of your day goes/has gone well.
ReplyDeleteGood job on the steaks, I always look for those deals as well! So sorry to hear about John's fall tho, hope he gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteOh, don't you love it when that happens? One of the local chains down here is especially prone to that kind of error so I always look sharp when I'm shopping there.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about the snow :( We're not entirely safe from it yet, but the temps have been warm and you'd have a very hard time convincing me to close the windows again!
Ev, I'm not sure we are even living on the same planet -- everyone keeps talking about the mild spring here in San Antonio since the temps are only ("only") in the 80-89 degree F range.
