My Desktop Photo 7: Soaring

Gas Up: May 15

Gas in my neighbourhood went up 2¢ per litre last week, so I’m paying $1.379. That’d be $5.24 or thereabouts per gallon.

What about you? Help fill up the big empty space below by giving me your local gas price info.

(I took this photo on the dog walk I took at 10pm, so it gives you an idea of the light at that time of night. It’s 10:45pm as I write this and the sun is just now setting behind the mountains.)

• Update: William Meisheid says they “buy diesel and 4.29 (US) a gallon. All three of our cars (daughter’s, wife’s, and mine) are VW diesels (Jetta TDIs).” 
• Update: Mark Olson is paying $3.99 a gallon in Illinois.
• Update: In Crystal Lake, IL, Dorothy is paying $3.97/gallon, and she has the photo to prove it.

May's Recipe Round Up at Whatever Things...

Here is a link to this month’s Recipe Round Up at Whatever Things.... You’ll find recipes from Russia to Ireland to southern Illinois and beyond. Once I recover my appetite after this week’s very rotten illness, there are several dishes I plan to try. I bet you’ll find at least a couple that interest you, too.

 

Thank you, Ann, for being our host and for coming up with such an interesting type of recipe to feature this month!
