Asadero cheese

If you want the taste of (Mexican) asadero cheese - one of the yummiest in the world - but aren't sure you can trust the cheese-maker, buy some of that string cheese you can get at Wal-Mart. It tastes almost the same. It comes in a little green packet. Real asadero cheese costs about three times as much so, from that standpoint too, it makes sense to buy the string cheese. Ok. 

Wal-Mart prices

I am now convinced that Wal-Mart has the lowest pricing for virtually any product you need. Sure, now and then you can buy 8 pounds of oranges at Ranch Markets for only one dollar - one dollar, yes - but it does not happen every day. We wish it did. How does Wal-Mart do it? I do not have a clue. The aisles might sometimes be messy and unclean, but hey, nothing is perfect. Sorry. 

Fragrance

I bought a small bottle of fragrance oil at Wal-Mart the other day. It's made by Elegant Expressions - that's the brand. When I got home and put it in the warmer, I also started a pot of coffee, but just by pure chance. The fragrance I purchased is called Lavender Vanilla. The aroma that resulted from the combination of brewing coffee and this particular fragrance oil was absolutely, astonishingly, unbelievably adorable - to die for. Try it and see. You won't believe your nose.
