How are prices like that even sustainable? Who can make a profit? Surely not the farmer, nor the grocer. If we buy eggs from Walmart, we could get them for $5.88 and that is considered cheap. (That's 4.69 USD so it's not all in the exchange rate.) Costco has a similar price but for 24 count and free range. The yokes are not a deep yellow so we end up adding a dash of turmeric to them for improved visual appeal. Problem with Costco is that we can't eat that many so we end up sharing some with Kaiser which is annoying because his fancy a$$ is already getting raw food.

Wow that seems like an insane price!! Granted, we havent bought eggs for over a year now that we have chickens, but in pretty sure they're only about $1.50 regular price per dozen here. We often have .99 sales at one store or another if you dont mjnd shopping around. Wonder if I can mail you some eggs haha, weve probably given away more than we've eaten over the last year... Right now I bet we have 4 dozen on the table!
 
I think eggs around here are around .69 for the regular price but we try to buy them from a local farmer too. Although both of the people we buy from haven't been getting many eggs this year so we've had to buy them in the store. It's about $3/dozen from the farmers but well worth it.

:wow:California is expensive too! The more we are run by a socialist type of government the worse it will get.:groan::groan:it's sad
 
I guess now there are some plans to become our own country! :scratch: sigh..Wow California can really get to be stupid speed.
I wonder if @Gelcoater has done a thread on this. I don't want to delve into it too much in this thread but one key question I have at the outset is: If CA "exits" and becomes its own country :facepalm: I wonder if the brave new sovereign country (state) of my birth will want good ol' U.S. military assistance if attacked.
 
Dingo was hunting for 'tinkerbells' yesterday...

Of course they will. If it's anything like when Quebec wanted to leave...they wanted to keep the currency, healthcare, military, ALL THE PERKS but wanted to rule themselves. Ya sure. GTFO. So they stayed with all the perks and still rule themselves. All in the name of togetherness!
 
I took Brinks on a date today, first we went to the jetty and walked around he also took a dip in the water. After we went downtown and had lunch, he was so very well behaved a perfect gentleman and many people stopped to pet and compliment him. Then we cruised around downtown for a little bit more before heading home.

Good boy, Brinks! You must be very proud of your gorgeous boy, @Brioddy.

He reminds me such much of my first boy, Jake. Brinks has a darker colouring but my gosh, it brings back such wonderful memories when I see your pics of him.

He has blossomed into a wonderful dog :) I know he didn't have the greatest start in life BUT you've given him the best that you can possibly give, that's clear for all to see. He's such a credit to you!
 
Awww thank you!!! That melts me, I do surely love the big goof. He is just so sweet, silly and personable I couldn't imagine life without him. He is always by me no matter what, even in the truck he rests his head on my shoulder as I'm driving which is sweet except he drools all over me. lol I can put up with it!

I love seeing pics of this guy.
You already know why:)
