Suspicious “Homemade” Marshmallows

If you like marshmallows from the store, this will take your appreciation to the next level. If you think they’re just for cool weather, hot chocolate, and melting on top of casseroles think again. You must be able to pick these up in the Food Lion parking lot on Fisher road. There is no catch, just pick them up and enjoy. Thanks for looking.

Spend even a little time on free classified sections and you’ll see post after post of people trying to give away construction refuse. Just did a quick look on my local free section, and found 38 listings for concrete pieces. Looks like there’s more available “fill” than there is need for it. Supply outstrips demand, and there’s a lot of unwanted, super-heavy garbage sitting around out there, cluttering the yard.

So what’s the answer? Increase demand! Convince people that they need fill to help build a little hill in the backyard. Suggest that throwing some concrete in the pond will provide a nice little habitat for the sunfish.

Or just flat-out lie and tell people you’re giving away marshmallows.

“Yeah, I know they’re heavy, it’s Mom’s recipe. Don’t open the box until you get home.”

Martha Stewart’s Pork Meatballs

Free to a good home. I ate most of the first pack but they were too “porky” for my taste. They are frozen so they are still edible if not “porky”. Personally I think Martha could have done better.

There’s nothing more appetizing than partially consumed food rejects.

Here’s the pitch: “A couple disclaimers. This is bad. It’s been in my car. It’s been in my kitchen. It’s been in and out of my freezer a few times. And again, just bad – ‘porky’ really. But I thought you might like to have it. I mean, we’re complete strangers, right? And who doesn’t want to visit a complete stranger to collect some bad, partially consumed food? See you soon, stranger.”
