wierd

so I had to pick up a Honeybaked Ham for the kid's thanksgiving pot luck at school...Little did I know it would be a 45 minute excursion!

Here's a tip for the good folks at Honeybaked hams: if you have 50 people waiting over a half and hour in line, how 'bout some samples? Nothing beats standing in line sniffing mouth watering pork all morning.

Another wierd practice that only happens in the 'hood is showing the food to the brothers. Order chicken wings, and the counter lady has to open the box so that Jamal can peer inside. Imagine a pack of people all wanting to get a peek at thier new ham. The poor gals had to unwrap every ham, slowing the process to a halt!

Mudcat's back from Europe so I'll probably get to see him this weekend @ the Northside Tavern....
