Blogger’s note: I need to gripe a bit about prices in the grocery store.

Remember back when the pandemic began and all prices began going up because of, as we were told, the price of gas and diesel fuel was going up?

Well, the price of fuels has dropped significantly over the past month and people are going back to their jobs in ever-increasing numbers.

So, why aren’t food prices coming down? The press gives a hint of fule prices going up and everything increases in prices overnight. Why does it take forever for the reverse to take place?

I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling like one of the sheep that has been shorn far too many times.
