It’s a sad day when we say “Wow, the price of gas is down to $3.89, what a good price!” California has high fuel prices and we haven't seen it below $4.00 in a long time. Who would have thought there would come a day when we were happy to see gas at $3.89?
By now the charm of watching (and hearing) the Disneyland fireworks has worn off. The summer is their busy season so they set off fireworks every night. But I have to admit that when I do care enough to look out my window, they still look good, even if I am tired of the noise.
We continue to walk to the Mexican grocery store several times a week. The thing about this store that turns lot of people off is that nobody seems to care much how the place looks. There's always fruit and veggies smashed about on the floor. But the fruit and vegetables that are still in the bins are very fresh and really affordable, so you just have to be willing to overlook a few things. My favorite item in the store is their bread. In the front of the store is a big plastic bin that looks sort of like a lobster tank but instead of being filled with water, it’s filled with freshly-baked bread. These small loaves are called bolillos and they are so good! I use them for everything - sandwiches, snacks, even toast. And you get five for just 99¢!
