Grass fed milk

I haven't posted about food in a while... I'm not seeing Traderspoint 100% grass-fed milk at Sahara or Bloomingfood's, just yogurts. But I did get Farmer's All Natural Creamery Grass Fed milk from Bloomingfood's, $4/half gallon, "VAT pasteurized" (supposedly longer but lower temperature) and non-homogenized. It tasted weird at first -- slightly sour, I'd have said, like buttermilk -- but now I'm learning toward saying it has the diversity of flavors that Traderspoint had. It also might be not having enough fat, since I don't think I got the fat stirred in well, it's still mostly in clumps. By comparison, the Organic Valley whole milk was rich, but flat, coating my tongue in Fatty Milk Stuff as opposed to "Wow, what explosion of flavors is this?" Stuff.

Tangentially, Organic Valley Orange Juice? Still inferior IMO to Tropicana. Let alone to fresh squeezed oranges, which I had a few of courtesy of the Asian market in Eastland Plaza.

Food today

I went to Le Petit Cafe for the first time in a while. Good, though less ecstatic than before; highlights would be the pasta with pesto, and the dessert. But I left stuffed, without having eaten everything; I think it needs to be shared.

Does one tip at a place where the server clearly owns the establishment? I did, but it feels weird.

I went by the new Bloomingfood's for the first time. It's got a cafe, like Eastside. Looked decent otherwise; don't know if it has more than downtown, or just more space. More fridges, I guess, and including Traderspoint 100% grassfed milk! At $3.49/32 oz, making it twice the price of the last milk mentioned, and about 4x the price of normal milk.

I seem to have lost my sunglasses, which is very very unfortunate. I walked to a lot of possible lost/found places, but no luck.

I seem to have gained 6 pounds in the last 13 days, which implies an extra 1700 calories a day, which seems implausible.
