Downsizing

Same brand. Same price. ONE QUARTER INCH NARROWER!!!
At first I thought that someone sneaked into my house and changed the holder. Then I realized that the width of my super-soft quilted toilet paper has shrunk by a full one-quarter inch. Come on Charmin, did you think I wouldn't notice?

This isn't the only product that is getting smaller. Cereal boxes. Tuna cans. Width of fabric yardage (from 45 to 42 inches). Tootsie Roll Pops (is nothing sacred?)

What else haven't I noticed?

$.92

I blame the Cha-cha-cha bears.

Evidentially we don't share the same ability to memorize commercial jingles. That's a shame.

And the burgers are from In and Out Burger in Vegas. It's like Mecca. Ben and I make yearly pilgrimages for their delicious double double with cheese.

As I recently commented on Muriel's blog, there are a few of you that speak an entirely foreign language that I cannot comprehend. I admire this talent even as I stand there with a blank look on my face.
