    Cheese and wine goes so well together and makes a great snack along with some fresh fruit.

    These eats and wine make you look like you live in the richest part of America.

    That's a very strange comment Cody. Would a picture of a Big Mac and coke appear less rich.
    Where I live is for sure not the richest part of America.

    I lived in the richest part of America for nearly my entire life...the counties surrounding Washington DC. Once you overpay people like that, they somehow get the idea that they actually deserve it, and act accordingly...but there's no substance to them. Trust me, you want no part of it.

    Regarding that snack: I worked for a French company, and they catered lunch for us every day. The concern was that if the French left work to go eat, they wouldn't come back. Once a week our meal would be cheese, fruit, yogurt and French bread w/butter. It made for a nice, refreshing lunch.

    For years I would keep cheese and cut fruit in the fridge at work, and have it for a mid-morning snack. They do "pair well."

    Basically, Lon, I was only joking. But, your Asst. Living place is pretty rich looking. Just look at the meals you take photos of. I wasn't talking about Fresno, but about where you live.

    And, yes, a picture of a Big Mac and Coke would appear less rich.

    That's what I use to drink sometimes. To me, it was good, but to some it was "rot-gut".

    You and I are about the same age. We both recall when Apple was the only flavor...then they came out with Strawberry in '72.

    I don't know that I'd call Boone's Farm "rot gut." That label is reserved for Ripple and Richard's Wild Irish Rose.

    I still don't see why the meals are rich looking to you.

    Why does a bunch of cheese and some grapes equal rich?
    Anyone can have them.
    A glass of wine is not considered to be "rich" either .
