Shopping
Today, I wandered over to Target to pick up some more blank DVDs and some jewel cases to put them in. I also bought another Beatles album ("Beatles For Sale"); there are only four more to get.
En route, I passed by The Chef Shoppe - the store where I bought my manual coffee grinder. Since then, it had moved and (as I learned in conversation with the woman at the counter) moved again. On impulse, I stopped in to look for a new kitchen timer and a big frying pan. (Excuse me; now they're "sauté pans".) They turned out to have a small number of mechanical timers, and a wide range of pans. I settled on an All-Clad pan, 12" diameter and 2.5" depth - much better than my old one, at 10"x2". (The old one is on its last legs in any case. The handle is attached by a screw, which I have had, on several previous occasions, to re-screw, but it appears now that the threads are stripped. I am not going to cook with a pan whose handle I cannot trust to stay on!)
All in all, a good - though expensive - shopping trip.
