Trips to the HEB were highlights of our vacations in my grandparents' town.
My cousin who still lives there is visiting my folks right now. He will not be coming to my wedding, evidently, due to it being football season. Stereotypical Texan much?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Oh, there is an HEB where my grandmother lives. Awesome cakes. Also HEB and Central Market are the same co. Does CM even have cosmetic stuff?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Central Market might have froo-froo organic stuff. I don't remember seeing any cosmetics, though.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I'm a big fan of fitballs as chairs. And the Hoppity-Hop was one of my favorite toys as a kid so I totally wish they made them in my size.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

She is in HEB! Actually I think there aren't any close.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Spidra, they make one 26" which is probably just fine for an adult.

come down to Haight Street with me and we'll stop and see if we can find a dress/costume/pair of pretty shoes/Disney movie for you.
That would TOTALLY work on me. But so would a cheese steak. just not sweets.
Food bribery will never work on Grace, but I can coax her anywhere if I promise that she'll get to ride in a shopping cart. Or that I'll carry her.
Noah and K spent today at UCLA for the 4 hours I was teaching. Real Madrid is practicing on UCLA's fields all week for an exposition match with the Galaxy so it's been sort of clusterfucky. But I think they still had fun. The report is that the botanical garden has HUNDREDS of turtles.

That's cool, Cash. I'm not sure that it can take all the Spidra that I have grown to be in middle age, though.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Food, NSM.
Oh she'll go for french fries. Which we did. Donuts did not happen.
After that, we hopped on the N-Judah, rode through the tunnel and got out at Dog Park (aka, Duboce Park). Where we played at the playground rather briefly, and then played with the dogs (and admittedly, the dog fountain) for an extended stretch.
Dogs met: Zoe, the French bulldog (b/w, very sweet), Ruffles the big black mutt, Rudy the Rhodesian Ridgeback who was very happy to play with Ferdinand the Staffordshire Terrier. Both big dogs doing the big dog roughhousing thing, but totally mellow at the dog fountain where Matilda took care of them; also Pablo the Corgi and Star the Pomeranian.
We mostly petted Zoe, though as she was quite content to have her butt rubbed. Matilda was taken with her little pink bow (which matched the pink streak in her owners hair).
There was also a lot of climbing on the dog fence.
On the train back, Matilda stared openly at the tall slender dancer type with long, curly red hair. The dancer chatted with her but Matilda was too awestruck to do much until we got off the bus and then speculated about the "pretty red haired lady's" husband.
Three hour outing. Now I'm hoping she conks down for a nap.
