Something’s been bothering me.  It’s not anything that’s life-changing or life-or-death, but it’s a daily question mark for me and I’m now seeking an answer.  Can anybody help me?  Can anybody put this niggling question to rest?
Is it Mr Noodle or Mr Nuno?

I hate Elmo’s voice.

Ketchup-less Big Macs

Why don’t they put ketchup on a Big Mac?  Every other burger gets it.
Poor Big Mac.

Test Tube Aliens: cool toy or waste of money?

The other day, I mentioned wanting a Test Tube Alien for my birthday.  Although the packaging states that it is for ages 7 and up, I figured that my 35th was the perfect time to get this new toy. 
I asked for it, and I got it!
The alien I was given is called Yagoni and ‘he’ […]

Equality Potato Chips: regular versus flavored

We did our groceries at Food Basic again today.  I’m not a big fan of grocery shopping but it does give me a tiny bit of retail therapy.  What can I say; I love spending money!
With our son’s GFCF diet, we spend quite a bit more time shopping for food now than we did before.  […]

Test Tube Aliens

I was at work the other day and got to talking to a customer about her child’s toy.  I can’t even remember now what it was, but the discussion then turned to another toy that the child has recently received as a gift.  It was an alien in a test tube, the mother told me.  […]

A budding vegetarian? Maybe not

My stepdaughter, who is 17, is a budding vegetarian.  I put it in that way because she says that she wants to become one but never really gets around to doing anything about it.  She’s never been particularly fond of meat and, I’m sure, could live without it easily.  But I don’t cook vegetarian, so […]

Most years, we wait until December to buy Christmas gifts.  We always feel like we end up doing it very “last minute” though and it always feels so rushed.  We worry about what to get people and settle for choosing the best that we can find. 
But that’s no way to do it.
With a budget in […]

St-Hubert… Delicious

We ordered St-Hubert for supper tonite and, oh, what a treat!  We rarely order in.  Now, that’s not to say that we don’t eat our fair share of fast food/restaurant meals.  We just normally go out for the meal.  And the last time we had St-Hubert was when my Mum and step-father treated us to […]

Molson Dry or Rickard’s Red?

I grew up in Montreal, Quebec, where you can buy beer at any corner store.  Or ‘depanneur’, as the French call them.  Just head to the fridges at the back of the store and walk in to scan towers of cases of beer.  Every brand and quantity (6, 12 or 24, regular, king-size cans and […]

The Independent versus Food Basics

Posted on August 31, 2007
Filed Under Complaints, Cornwall, Love it!, Main, Product Reviews

There are several grocery stores in Cornwall and, like everyone else, we have our favorite.  The one we got to most frequently is Food Basics, because it’s a lot less expensive than the other stores.  There are two FBs in town - one on Brookdale and one on Second - so there’s always an alternative […]
