It's from an article that came out in Newsweek, December, 2022

https://www.newsweek.com/restaurant-selling-food-market-price-dubbed-sign-times-virginia-1767122

Carrie Bell, general manager at The Mill on MacArthur, told Newsweek: "Around a year ago the cost for tater tots per case inflated from around $25 a case to almost $75 a case. Our printed menu then had them listed for $4.50 for 2 dozen tots plus 4oz. dipping sauce. Unfortunately, this price increase was untenable for us as well as our customers, and we were forced to stop carrying them.

When reprinting our menus this October we debated leaving the tots or removing them, due to product cost volatility. As a joke to ourselves we decided to leave them, but at market price. It has sparked a lot of good conversations between guests and staff, a small teaching moment about food costs and the continued struggles in the supply chain."

While the ongoing joke on the price of tater tots remains a point of interest for visitors and staff, Bell confirmed that tater tots currently cost $4.50."

They guys at boulevard auto in chesterfield are always so great. They are kind and honest in my experience. They called me with my total for an oil change and I couldn’t even believe it, I asked them if they were sure that was enough.

Speaking multiple languages is an asset, not a "barrier." Having classmates and friends from a variety of different countries and cultures is a benefit for children who will become adults in this global society. So if you take that into consideration along with the caring principal and the other events the school hosts that enrich the school community, why would you suggest the OP send their kid elsewhere?

If your brother indicates that he may be a threat to himself or others please get him to an ER immediately for safety. They will assess him, keep him safe and get him placed where he needs to be. Otherwise, great suggestions on here.

When we lost one of our kitties years ago, our vet had informed us that there's a local ordinance in the city making it illegal for pet burials outside of a cemetery or something like that. May be worth looking at the local regulations if burial is still on the table - I can't imagine how hard it'd be to lose a kitty then have to deal with that kind of mess. Sorry for your loss!

Schwarzchild in Carytown. They are wonderful and their customer service is always top notch. They kept us in budget and worked with us to create this beauty. We went to 2 other different stores, and considered the online lab grown companies but my heart just kept going back to Schwarzchild. I’m obsessed with my ring 💍
