I stopped by Mollie Stone's last evening to pick up something easy for dinner. Dad would be out and I would be dining solo. Molly's has a great in-house sushi chef and delectable selection. I decided on a tempura roll, which features tempura shrimp and freshly sliced cucumbers.
Since last spring I've been tracking prices on some common items I buy. Rather intermittently, I admit, but still, I've found some interesting things. Mostly that prices are going up rapidly. This sushi roll, cost me $9.59 last night, but in mid-May it cost $8.40, a little more than a 14% increase. However, the price has held steady at $9.59 since September 10th. And what will it be November 5th?

I feel like I've been asleep around here because last weekend at the grocery store I suddenly realized everything was more expensive than I remembered!
Let's hope that on November 5 we can start to turn things around and get our country back on track.
Oh, look! I can see Obama's face in the tobiko.
Kayln: Yes, it seems to take big jumps doesn't it? I hold the same political hope.
Cookiecrumb: And I thought it said 'change'!
I hope that what goes up must come down applies here.
I smell Inflation! Using a lot of wasabi on sushi might help getting used pain until things get better.
