Soup with ramen noodles?

Yes. That's my shortcut method of adding noodles to a home brewed soup broth. I may have said I didn't have any luck making noodles at home so I found out that you can substitute them with ramen noodles, I happen to like the Top Ramen brand, sans the flavor packet and add that to your own broth. I can't begin to say how much of a delight this is for me. Instead of waiting for the noodles to cook and drain and all that, I just took a bag of noodles from the pack, dropped it in the boiling broth and let it cook for a couple of minutes and that's it!

SuperFresh this week

What a great sale this week. My favorite, Blue Bunny is on sale for $3.24 per 1.75qt. This is great since last week it was the sister supermarket in Pathmark which offered the same product for $3.50. Starting to notice that sale prices at Pathmark are always more expensive than SuperFresh. I wonder why? Nevertheless, I'll take the sale price instead of shelling out $6.49 at regular price, which just went up a few months ago from $5.99. I'm always watching these prices.

Financial meltdown

The US government must be more technically sound than ever before. Imagine how money is being moved around electronically like never before and what if applications are written to secretly move money from account to account without the victims knowing about it. It just seems too easy in todays highly technical world that this isn't happening somewhere, somehow, someway. The government should have in place a strict policy which thoroughy, exhaustively checks every application that's released to the public for potential security breaches

Thanks Pathmark

Pathmark does it again. This week's they have my favorite Blue Bunny ice cream on sale for $3.50 per 1.75 quarts. I would like to say 1/2 gallon but NOOOOOO.. these companies decided a few years ago (2005?) to reduce the quantity, yet still sell the product for the same amount. I'm going to write other supermarket chains like ShopRite, Acme, Fresh Grocer, Safeway, Thriftway and petition them to not only start selling Blue Bunny, but sell my favorite flavor. I know Fresh Grocer sells Blue Bunny, but my flavor is never available in their stores. Blue Bunny is great and clearly their product is much much better than that other company I don't even want to mention because I no longer support them after they DESTROYED a great product. Oh what the heck.. BREYER'S!!! aka GOOD HUMOR!!! aka UNILEVER!!! Yes your product now sucks after adding an awful ingredient "tara gum" to the products a few years ago. Now I'd bet tara gum is just a cheap filler which is NOT needed and was NOT used prior to 2005 in the All Natural flavors? Philadelphia used to be the home to Breyer's and I believe this is where Breyer's was founded. I know Kraft used to own the brand years ago. I'd better stop ranting because I'm getting upset that once a great product has no turned to an awful one. Things just ain't the same.

What happened to WebArchive?

I went to www.webarchive.org and this what I got today around 12:40pm.
A redirect to a french rocknroll webiste? What gives, perhaps it was
hacked.

Winners of Superbowl XLIII: The Pittsburgh Steelers

As predicted earlier, the Steelers won Superbowl XLIII. It was an incredible game, one that was very competitive until the very end. Santonio Holmes delivered on that final drive as well as Steelers' offensive line and Big Ben. It's interesting to study how dominant wide receivers have become in Superbowls of recent years. Thinking of those like Deion Branch, Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, David Tyree, Reggie Wayne, Mushin Muhammad, Terrell Owens, Wes Welker are all Wide Receivers.
I have to say that this catch by Santonio Holmes is probably the best TD catch I've ever seen in a Superbowl. It's as if Pittsburgh was showing the world the hey, the Cardinals may have their Larry Fitzgerald AND Anquan Boldin, BUT we have our own SANTONIO!! And sorry to the DB who'll go down in history as getting burnt on that last play. It's a photo that'll be viewed oh.. just billions of times..lol... Well at least on this play, he was much closer. Imagine if the touchdown was scored on the previous play where the DBs were really burnt, and yet Santonio couldn't make that catch on the other side of the endzone.
