I love disposable tupperware. No one I know actually uses them and throws them away every single time like they're sandwich baggies, but I love that no one is uptight about them. It seems like everyone, rich or poor, is happy to give you something in one of those throw-away ziplock containers and won't worry about getting it back any time soon.
I also love g3 juice. It is a product sold by Pharmanex, which is where I work. It is fruity and tangy, and has tons of vitamin C (translation: if you accidentally swallow it down the wrong pipe, it is painful for a long time) and beta carotiene and stuff. It's healthy. My mom came to visit, and I gave her a drink of it. After several moments of pensive lip smacking, she told me it tasted like it had crunched up vitamins in it.
It doesn't.
But it's good.
Other good things: On Saturday, it snowed. This isn't the good part. What that means for us is that we have to instantly run out and shovel our driveway, or else it will turn into a large sheet of ice that will stay 'til next spring unless we hack at it on warm afternoons.
But it snowed, and I was late for work. So I drove on our driveway, smashing down all the snow into what would soon be the start of our huge sheet of ice.
I came home from work, though, and our street was plowed (the city tends to ignore the fact that we live on our "no outlet" dead end, so they never plow for us). Then I was even more surprised as the dirt road leading to our driveway and then the entire driveway were all plowed!
Turns out, our neighbor had gotten a new snowplow front for his 4-wheeler, and he came by and plowed our entire yard. He was apparently very excited about his new toy, as after he finished with our yard, Kevin said he saw him plowing the church parking lot behind us at full throttle, yelling and screaming "woo hoo!!!" as he did doughnuts at the end of each run.
Ok, so I made up the 'woo hoo' part.
But that's what I imagine.
