You people may scoff at our real attempts to save after not receiving a COLA for two years.

My family understood and admired my frugality, saying that the barbecue lambs were just as good as the barbecued steaks on the hoof in these dismal times. They understand that we all have to make sacrifices.

Thankfully my bodega has an ample stock of fine wines to help dull the certain disappointment over the poverty barbecue.

In these financially strapped times,
instead of charting our 'usual Summer boat'

*************

We have decided to make a huge sacrifice,
And have rented a little house-boat for the week.

It does sleep up to 18 - so anyone who would like to join us,
Com'mon in! The water is perfect!

And just think of all the money we will save!
(And there is a huge BBQ grill on deck, so lambs would be welcome!)
