Ok - this is an odd one but since there haven't been any posts in awhile ...
Due to the roof repair we just had a small bit of ceiling over a nail popped out on the inside of the house, that is we had nice white ceiling except a single spot where you could see a nail head. I bought some Zinsser stain ceiling paint that took care of the problem. Anyway, now I have a whole spray can of the stuff. If anyone needs to use a bit of it, let me know, it's yours for the taking.

The Top Five Cheapest--But Least Healthy--Fast Food Choices
The non-profit Cancer Project ranks the five most unhealthy items on these so-called "value menus."
At the top of the list? Jack in the Box's $1 junior bacon cheeseburger, which has 23 grams of fat (8 grams of saturated fat), 55 milligrams of cholesterol, and 860 milligrams of sodium and just one gram of fiber.
In second-worst place, the 89-cent Taco Bell cheesy double beef burrito, with 460 calories, 20 grams of fat and a whopping 1,620 milligrams of sodium.
In third-worst place was the one-dollar Burger King breakfast sausage biscuit, with 27 grams of fat, including 15 grams of saturated fat and over 1,000 milligrams of sodium.
Fourth worst went to the one-dollar McDonald’s McDouble, which contains 19 grams of fat and 65 milligrams of cholesterol.
Last, and least-worst, was the Wendy’s junior bacon cheeseburger, for $1.53, with 310 calories and 16 grams of fat.

Great new restaurant!
If you'd like a new place to eat, try Wildflower Cafe in downtown Mason near the intersection of 42 and Kings Mill. They do lunches all week, dinner on Fridays or other days with reservations. Very tasty food, leaning towards locally grown and organic. The half sandwich and cream of potato soup w/asparagus was delicious and the chocolate/butter pecan cake with chocolate ganache was yummy and quite huge! I never made it to the Chocolate Morel or Tea Roses, but I made it here and I hope it is here to stay. Surprisingly, I am not being paid for this review and do not own any shares in the restaurant itself. I am just extremely satisfied after a fantastic lunch.
