Remember what Samuel Clemens said about San Francisco? "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.". (Actually, he never said that in print anywhere, but there is a quote or two where he inferred it)

It is wet, rainy, windy, and cold here this morning. We got just a little over 1/10" of rain this morning. Shivering me timbers.

Makes me glad I don't live in San Francisco. However, I couldn't afford to even if I wanted to.

Rain is the only time the sidewalks get washed. Rinses off the urine from people peeing in the streets.

Howdy guys, So far so good Jim! Good luck on the AC repairs on your two rigs.

No rain up here in North Central Washington, 65° already. I'm not looking forward to the hot summer time temps.

My milk showed up as a deli item, not dairy.

Maybe it is that new fangled Deli Milk from the Deli farm down the road.

The register scanned it as "HOMO MILK". I wonder what they know, that I don't know.

If there isn’t a layer of cream (butter fat) floating on top after a day or two, it has been homogenized so the fats are evenly distributed throughout.

Last time I saw whole milk (with the cream on top) was when I was living in Minnesota circa 1968 and we actually drove to the dairy farm to pick up our quart bottles of milk. It was kind of a ritual to poke a thin knife down into the bottle to stir it up.

I have not seen milk with cream on top since I was a kid and Adohr Farms brought it to our doorstep.

Grocery Outlet Bargain Markets does not carry it. Kroger/Foodsco doesn't have it either. But my local Safeway/Albertsons/Andronico's has it. *** Hill Foods has it also. I see it at Whole Foods. Most of the corner grocers stock it.
