…scales, farmers markets, and butter

Got the new scale in today. This time I ordered a super-high limit scale (440) that was not made of glass. It just makes no sense to me to have someone who weighs around 400 pounds standing on a thin sheet of glass. Anyway, this one works quite well. When it arrived at CedarCreek, Brent and I unboxed it and I used it right away, wanting to get a good measurement of my weight. Since I just weighed myself this morning at my dad’s, I wanted to have an accurate number for next week’s weigh-in.

Well it turns out my dad’s freight scale is more accurate than he let on… this brand new scale I got in the mail has me at 394.1, same as the one at my dad’s work this morning. Rock on.

Hey, if anyone is interested, Ryanne and I are going to the Perrysburg Farmers Market on Thursday. We’ve never been, so hold off any questions about price or anything… all we know is it’s on Thursdays, it closes at 8pm, and is supposedly in downtown Perrysburg. If anyone is interested in going on an adventure in local produce with us, we’re probably heading down around 6pm.

Not only are you helping the environment by buying locally and regionally, but for me it’s more about supporting the local farmers.

By the way… click here for the truth on those 0 calorie butter sprays! It’s not horrible or anything, but they’re not exactly honest in the advertising. I honestly have been staying away from these anyway, just because of the fact that I cannot wrap my head around the idea that something that contains zero butter, tastes like better. And I can’t decide what’s worse, a few extra calories, or a mountain of weird chemicals.
