Charlotta and Home Again

Charlotte was loverly.  

I learned things.

I saw a presentation with a photo of Pam Anderson in it, followed by a presentation explaining a methodology for using metaheuristics to set a policy at food banks to equally distribute food to hungry persons in NC.  

Variety.  The spice of life.

Speaking of spices (very loosely, and don't think this is a segue, I'm not going anywhere with this.) I bought a vanilla bean for the first time today.

Just like this one, but without the 3pack.
And without Amazon's help.

I don't have any idea about what to use it for.  I've always wanted them, but even on Amazon they're selling 3 for $28.  This one I bought was $2.  Three cheers for the discount-grocery-store-that-I-was-formerly-afraid-to-go-into-but-now-love.  Here here! (hear hear?)  
ASIDE: I still don't look in the freezer.  Something about the huge "COME SEE WHAT'S IN OUR FREEZER" sign and one too many scary movies has me unable to open the door even with my hand on the latch.  Sometimes I shake.  Okay, not really, but it's close.
Something else I've bought recently at my scratch-and-dent grocery?  My new favorite cereal: Honey Graham O's!
ASIDE: Am I the only person who thinks Graham is hard to spell, and difficult in general?  

Clearly it's also available from Amazon.
But it's a 12pack.
I've done the never-ending-breakfast-food thing before,
it's not pretty.

p.s.- I'm still considering doing it.  This cereal is 'da bomb!

Whew.  We've already covered a lot of ground in this short post, and I'm half tempted to call it a night and go to bed.  But there's other things left to say, more words lodged in my fingertips that need to get out.  Problem is, I don't know exactly what they are.
