livin' in america...not..

coolest skull ring, ever.
mango, local strawberries, blueberries on angel food cake, whipped cream


we went across the border to the land of plenty on monday. what a crazy place that is.
everything's crazy cheap..and well, different from here, a nice change from the ordinary.
it's amazing what a bridge and some intimidating border guards will do.

walmart superstore- this place is bonkers! you can buy all your groceries & all your daily needs in one place. no wonder mom and pop shops are taking a dive. it's mind boggling. honestly.
i have a dilemma with this place in general. i love to hate this store. yet, i'm drawn there like a moth to a flame. . i feel like a kitten dies everytime i walk in. i don't want to go there, but it's all about saving money on certain items...a lot of money, actaully.

i actaully did wake up this morning wondering, "where i can get freshly baked bread, a bra, some steaks for supper, a 12 of budwiser(for less than 10 bux, i might add), bathmat and a PS3 all in the same place?"
...of course, walmart...duh..

i did get a (surprisingly) yummy piece of red velvet cake ($1.50), an 8pack of jones root beer ($2), we had to do it, since we can't find it here; flat iron steaks ($5), dickies pants for jer without the cell phone pocket ($14).
----we had the steaks is aft for lunch (cooked in the new grill pan) they were a strange texture. definately not canadian beef. really tender, but the highlight was the baked potato wrapped in basil leaves.


arby's - mmmmm, processed roast beef, curly fries with cheese sauce and dr.pepper
ok, it's *not* good, but you've got to succumb to the cravings once in a while.

steve and barry's- sara jessica parker brand 'bitten' jeans, 9.98! they actually fit! the shirts and dresses, not so much, but the jeans are really nice.

aladin's castle arcade- Deal or no deal arcade game... so much fun... it's like the real show, but with prize tickets. the banker gives you deals. and everything!! such a ruch when you press the NO DEAL button!!
we won 2 plastic skull rings and a pack of candy.

on a weird note: i saw my old manager rob from wendy's eating wendy's. i chuckled when i saw him, looks just the same. odd.
