52.4% local

Shopping trip to the Wedge on Lyndale.  I love how they break down the purchase to show what percentage of your sale went to a local product/company.  Today was one of the higher ones as I purposefully looked for near MN foods. The Wedge doesn't consider eastern WI to be local, so I hit at 52.4%...nice! Decided chili would be good on a cold week such as this, so I made it with pinto, kidney, chili and black beans, onions, garlic and tomatoes.  It turned out really well and now I have meals for the next few days.

For the rest of today's meals:
Chili
water
good chance I will have some of the ice cream in the freezer.  Hey! At least its Kemps from St. Paul. Who'd have known?!

Now I will reward myself by reading in a nice, quiet house.
