Trivia Night!
Technically I'm off for Presidents' Day, which is why today's post will be short and sans multimedia. You know, it's a real mystery to me who gets off work for Presidents' Day and who doesn't. Maybe Lisa Cullen can sort that out.
Anyway, I'm hereby declaring this Trivia Night. Here's your question (maybe it'll be something to discuss over dinner):
What is almost always the top-selling item in any grocery store?
Keep an eye out for the answer tomorrow. Or perhaps we'll have some really smart comment posters get to it first.
UPDATE: Trivia night twofer! I will now reveal the correct answer on Wednesday, so if anyone else wants to take a guess, you've got extra time.
