Closure(s)


Behold, another method of fastening a packet of soda crackers:


In the right upper section of the below photo, taken today, you will see the way we fasten crackers after eating some but not all of a packet. For years we've been re-tieing the twisties each time we're finished partaking. But one day we raccoonnoitered the situation after fumbling with a twistie, as it happened, for the last time.


If we have closures for our potato chip bags involving spring clips, we reckoned, why in the hell can't we use a simple pinch clothes pin for other smaller packages? (The same method works great for plastic bread loaf wrappers that also come with those pesky twisties.) So, here's yet another public service announcement from the SR News.


Oh, you ask, what's on that plate that looks so scrumpuous? Just a little lunch Denise fixed up. A stuffed tomato with tuna, peas, mayo, green and orange peppers, and finely-chopped lettuce. The soup course is Campbell's bean and bacon. Sparkling Roundy's ginger ale in the Ball jar.

Simple fare for simple folks.
