Been going to the vegetable stand on Boundary Road just shy of the Joyce Street Divide. Fruit and vegetables are really fresh and the prices are more than reasonable. MG1 approved.

Corn is expensive, but local and way better quality than the US corn that has flooded the market.


Support local and save........ win win

For those that want to avoid driving in Richmond, it's also available online, free shipping...

If you're not in a rush, wait for it to go on sale, likely during Black Friday.

Green Giant canned vegetables on sale at Walmart for 97¢.

Half price or there abouts.

Canned vegetables expire in three to four years, so good to stock up on. Especially when they go on sale. Walmart is completely out of stock on the Cream Style Corn and Niblets. Maybe some waxed and green beans left, 'cause those are not that great. Frozen or fresh way better.

Anyway, made some corn soup today. Easiest thing to make. Can of Kirkland chicken breast, two containers of Campbell's chicken broth, two cans of Green Giant Cream Style Corn, Lipton's chicken noodle soup mix (as is), Trader Joe's Thai Wheat Noodles, half dozen eggs (swirl). Roasted garlic, seasoning, and that's it. You can substitute or add whatever you have in the pantry. Can't go wrong with corn soup.

What I did, since Walmart was out of stock, was price match at No Frills and Superstore. Didn't bother going to Save-On-Foods. Anyhow.......................

Sale started on Thursday and ends on Wednesday. When price matching, make sure to get the right size. There are two sizes that are very similar.

Never tried a mooncake before. Is it called that because of the shape? I see it all the time in slot games, gulolol............. it looks heavy, as in dense. Not having tried one, can't really say............. describe, oh mighty white washed chinamanz.

In conclusion, you guys are saying don't let Costco mooncake be the first one for me to try.

If it says TASTIE ... it must be good!

Who the hell buys this kind anymore ... it's the bougey, millenial kind that you get in the fridge, two tiny ones with thin skin and like mango flavour with pomelo. You old bastard.

Oh good, now I have a reason to use the $25.00 gift card I got on Sungiven's Grand Opening Day at the Greystone location.

As for Costco, I picked up the Pineapple cake thing on clearance (half price) last year. It was actually good.

Not much tbh. Appliances and power tools were still expensive, I did manage to find a bbq cover for $20, reg price $50.

Mooncake is just something of a Chinese tradition to give out during the lunar festival. TBH, I don't even know who buys/eats them anymore. It's like a full recyclable thing.

I got a box from a client of mine, a rather expensive one from TW. So, I gave it to my folks. The box kinda had a bit of engraving on it because my son was writing his math on a sheet of paper and used the box as his table. It's not noticeable, but it's there if one looks at it close enough or know where to look.

Then my mom gave it to my uncle.
He gave it to my cousin.
My cousin gave it to my brother.
And then the other day when my brother came over for a visit, he brought that very same box back to me.
