Onions!!! Two questions.

Oh heavenly days, no, Marsha. That was way too gentle to be considered a scolding. It just made me realize my lack of preciseness.

I hope you didn't seriously burn yourself with the towel fire this morning.

I didn't burn myself, just the towels. Someone thinks it's cool to store a bundle of extra kitchen towels in the range oven, which they don't use on the line for evening shift (they have a conveyor/pizza oven). Of course, I'd already discovered this a couple weeks ago, but this morning I got distracted and forgot to look before turning on the ovens to pre-heat for baking desserts.

20 minutes later, I came up from my basement station to find the kitchen filled with smoke. Tongs, sink, water, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, you can imagine the rest.

I thought the Highland location had pretty nice selection/quality, but the Middletown store is shades apart.

Highland Kroger is VERY hit or miss. One week the produce is in great shape, well stocked, with good variety. The next they'll be only like 5 yellow onions available, all rotting, 2 bananas, and slimy spinach. I'm sure it has something to do with when produce arrives and when it's stocked, but the degree of variation is crazy.

I wish that Valu-Market in the Highlands did better with their produce. I've been very disappointed with it, to the point that I don't really go there anymore.
