Anticipation

I've now officially begun my annual search in the stores for blood oranges.

I looked at Crest today. No joy.

We have blood oranges here. I used some in a marinade just the other day.

Perhaps you'll have to travel...

I refuse to let my urges rule me!

No... you announce that you need to go visit dear friends and family members. If you just *happen* to stop at the grocery store...

Just pointing out, rationalization is always an option.

"I looked at Crest today. No joy."

Searching for blood oranges, and looking inside a toothpaste tube and surprised you didn't find dishwashing liquid... now there's your problem. (ducks)

Give it another few weeks. And don't forget that they're now living under an assumed name. (Moro)

Wow, I haven't eaten a blood orange in *years*. I didn't know they still made those!

Good luck on your quest; fruitful luck and all that is apropos. :)

a clever ploy....

I'll blabber about it when I finally track one down. (This isn't usually until Feb)

At Tops. the 8-mile-away grocery store, no such.
However, I saw a flier for Wegmans, the Awesome grocery store, which laid claim to having them. and as blood, not moro, oranges. Guess they didn't get the anti-Undead American memo.
