Currently the door is full... but I've not been needing to freeze bread
so much lately anyway...

Apparently has the capability to ignore reality, well above the norm...

Quite.  It could indeed be entertaining, too, to see how far out of date
it is...  Occasionally I have that fun on my own outdated goodies... ;)
 
 ML>> getting Belize farmed shrimp (small tigers but sustainably
 ML>> grown) for $10.99, passing on the only scallops available,
 ML>> giants at $20.99.
 NB>> Wegmans shrimp is worth the cost... it does taste particularly good...
 ML> These were good, but when almost as good down at Shaw's or
 ML> Hannaford costs $5 or 6, one wonders a little.

I do tend to hold off until I need/want shrimp... and/or have a coupon
and/or find it on a special sale...  ;)

 NB>> But I do wish sometimes I could just buy the scallops irregardless
 NB>> of cost... the taste testings I've had of them are always very good,
 NB>> but I have a hard time buying them at $20+ a pound...  sigh...
 ML> They were big and pretty like a swimsuit model but just as
 ML> unattainable. 

When we went shopping Friday, among my finds was some ready-cooked fresh
scallops.  Still pretty pricey, but it was only about a half-pound, and
was more like $17/pound, so I did grab a package... we'll have it for
supper tonight...  It's the large pretty ones...

 NB>> Oh.  I didn't mind the old audience participation... dunno about

Not my cuppa, either...  :(   Might be an interesting sociological
expedition, if one kept carefully to the back for observation... But
immersion into it doesn't sound very appetizing...
