Because I'm a nerd, I added up the cost--even with the 70% organic ingredients the food came to $3.18 The wine added another buck.

What are some of your favorite webcomics?

Public Arggg! I will get three to the top! Thank goodness I’m not playing this in a real money-based arcade… “Courtesy” of iJustine in a roundabout way.
