Fresh Direct, You Are My Lover

The Mexican Scoper Standoff

I received a flyer today in the mail from a company called Fresh Direct. After checking out their website, I realized that my new obsession has been born. Fresh Direct is a company, serving the five boroughs of New York City, which will deliver your groceries right to your front door for a very modest fee. You can also opt to pick up your groceries from the distributor in Long Island City for free. I spent about an hour on their website today, perusing all they had to offer. All I can say is that my life is now forever changed! They have HUNDREDS of different types of gourmet cheeses. They have a HUGE selection of fresh, organic fruits, vegetables, and seafood. They have almost 50 different types of popsicles. They have every different brand and flavor of hummus that a person could desire. This company was created for me.

I placed an order just now, and they are scheduled to deliver my groceries between 10 a.m. and noon tomorrow. Yes, you actually have the option of scheduling when you want your groceries to arrive, within a two hour window. If my groceries actually arrive within that window, my new life plan will be solidified. I think I might soon be going to OGSA (online grocery shopping anonymous) meetings. Seriously, this could easily get out of control.

The Death of an Elmo Stroller

In other news, there is a thunderstorm going on outside my windows right now. My doggies keep crouching in fear at the sound of the very loud claps of thunder. I have been consoling them with hugs and kisses for the time being. There’s nothing more revitalizing than a good ‘ole fashioned thunder storm. Yes, indeedy.

    Boil some chicken liver for him. It will work. If not do what I did for nelu when she was also an anorexic puppy: chicken livers, bacon, steak, lamb, blueberry pie feast. Mix all with food and in small quantities just to add flavor. Slowly wean when his appetite is large.

    I cooked fresh calf livers for paige when she was sick and didn’t eat last year. She liked it so much she got what we call “liver eyes”–wide open and staring at you when she smelled it cooking afterwards. It stinks horribly, but she ate it right up. Me,cooking calf livers-that is love. maybe it will work for scope? another time jeff got down on the floor and pretended to eat out of her bowl—-it made her decide the stuff in it much have been good-so she joined in…..
