This week on Grocery Pet Peeves, Elizabeth looks at the effects of "shrinkflation" on some typical items in your cart. 

What's NOT talked about is that how, by shrinking the product size yet leaving the cost the same, it's yet another hidden way of LYING to consumers as to the real rate of inflation.

So who knew that near the southern tip of the Florida Everglades is a cold-war era missile base pointed south at Cuba?  

Decommissioned in 1979, the HM 69 Nike Missile Base is now part of the National Park Service and is open to curious tourists just a few months of the year. 

From the NPS website:  The area includes 3 missile barns, a missile assembly building, a guard dog kennel, barracks, 2 Nike Hercules missiles, and various support elements. HM69 was also significant because of the technology employed. The South Florida Nike Hercules sites were integrated with Hawk missile sites to provide an all altitude defensive capability around South Florida. Approximately 140 soldiers staffed the 3 above-ground missile barns of HM69 to protect against an air attack from Cuba. The personnel of HM69, along with the members of other South Florida unites, received the Army Meritorious Unit Commendation which was one of the few times that it was awarded for deterrence rather than engagement with the enemy.

While the cruise industry seems to have its own issues with passengers, Elizabeth tells us about a GREAT way to travel on the water... in your own YACHT.  It's a LOT more affordable than you think.  (hint: purchase one with several friends)  Pop RVs / Pop Yachts  is a new advertiser on the program and we are THRILLED to work with them!

With St. Patrick's Day just a few days away (and having tried Irish Whiskey last year) we decided to try Irish Cream Liqueurs.   

With eight shot glasses lined up, we found a clear winner and a couple of very good alternatives.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
