:donut: Last week gas was $1.99. This week, same station (and probably same gas)$2.14. Same story all over the town...15 cent or more jump. And it's not even spring break yet...

And speaking of Spring, my favourite harbinger of Spring has arrived. I saw Peeps in the store. For those of you (our overseas friends) unfamiliar with this, Peeps are Marshmallow Chicks (they also have bunnies now)covered in coloured sugar)and given in children's Easter baskets. They are ok, but personally, I preform the ritual I call the 'Aging of the Peeps'. I buy them after Easter, puncture the wrapping and let them dry out. In 2-4 weeks I have the perfect delicacy. For more info on Peeps check out this scholarly web site
