I remember it as clearly as if it was three weeks ago, which it was. Mrs. Wire and I were in Walgreen’s picking up some prescriptions and a couple of items from the As Seen On TV! aisle —some life-changing vegetable chopper or something. “Let’s check your blood pressure,” she said, pointing to the sit-down B.P. machine in the pharmacy. “It’s been a while.” I have a history of high blood pressure, but it hasn’t been an issue

Fake crabmeat is here, there, everywhere
An example: In the refrigerated seafood case at a midtown Price Chopper, fat hunks of surimi were going for $3.49 a pound. A small 6-ounce can of real crabmeat was on sale for $2.39 -- a pound of the real stuff would be close to six bucks.

The last blender I owned suffered a death by degrees because we lost the chopper blade and then the motor began to fail. The “blender” we had before that was actually a food processor and it was not meant for the heavy-duty food prep I used it for.
