I've never tried, or seen these, but they seem to be liquorice and fruit?
How do you know which is the Bertie Basset one?

I tried to attach a picture, but gave up - how do you do that?

I've read that in many Jewish households, going out for Chinese food is a tradition on Christmas Day. Makes sense. I assume it's the least crowded day of the year for all restaurants, and since many of the owners of Chinese restaurants are also from backgrounds that don't celebrate Christmas, it's just another work day for them.

But getting back to the day after Thanksgiving; Chinese food would be an excellent choice except for all the leftovers we need to eat before they go bad.

Thanks. It looks to be solid black liquorice? What is the other one?

It's actually a very dark blue and is more of a liquorice flavoured hard jelly type thing. The other one is a sort of clear liquorice flavoured jelly covered in sweet bits (it comes in blue and pink). That's my second favourite.

Unhappily, Mrs B has now removed the box. claiming, and I quote, "You'll just sit there and eat them all".

Spoiler:
She's right, I would have

Hey! There be hot water in this house! My ex-daughter-in-law and her estranged current husband finished installing the new water heater this afternoon.

This is great news. Now my wife will no longer have to boil water for her bath the way she did this morning, nor put up with a stinking husband who's too lazy to go back to bathing Ma and Pa Kettle style. A win for everyone!

Riding an Amtrak train back to LA. Was visiting with family in Oceanside and San Diego.

It was a fun trip. Got to to see my brother, aunt, and cousins. The first of which bought me an iPhone as a belated birthday present. (no more crappy Kyocera!)

We don't have Black Friday and I've never seen a printer offered for less than the cartridges/toner. I've found an online ink store with a good reputation that sells their own brand of cartridges for a lot less than the official ones and it contains more ink.

Can't you buy the refill ink in your area? It's easier here to find bottles of refill ink for each brand of printer, or shops that will refill your cartridges, than it is to find shops selling new, original cartridges. Most people here use the larger tanks that attach to the outside of the printers, and many shops ONLY sell printers with the tanks already attached!

I haven't seen refillers in years and years, let alone tanks for printer ink. As I said, I found a reputable online store that sells their own branded cartridges with more ink than the originals and for less money.

Managed to get another ear infection, or am about to get one, so after a busy morning I'm now going to take it easy the rest of the day.

Steam has a sale, the first one since getting back into gaming. I've bought 4 games today (Anna, Infected, Sherlock Holmes and Kairo) and I spend less than €15 in total!
