Decided to go out and raise my cholesterol level by 40 points, so visited the Metro Diner and had a burger that, instead of buns, uses two grilled cheese with bacon and tomato for top and bottom. Add a mess o’fries, and that was way too many calories (but it’s sooooo good).

Need to be up early tomorrow to get the last ordering done for the remodel, then start serious planning for my vacation (which starts Thorsday).

I presume they were looking for worms or grubs for dinner.

I took some down to my friend and her husband. They’re dealing with some end of life decisions on his part.

:eek:

Is there [del]some[/del] a lot of arsenic in your recipe?
