 ML> We will check out Costco. What about Target, BJ's, and similar?

We have a Meijer Super Center - which isn't as big as the small Wally World.
But, then, Meijer came at the "super center"concept from the grocery business -
not, as WalMart did, adding grocery to barely adequate general merchandise to
get more market share.

The Frogs show little interest beyond the current (recently enlarged) Target
store that has been here quite a while.

BJ's told me in an e-mail that Akron, OH is as far to the west as they plan to
expand.  Bv(=

K-Mart/Sears is planning a Sears-Mart venue (last I heard) to open at an
existing K-Mart real estate location - timed to open at the same time that
Sears lease with Simon Properties (White Oaks MAll) as North anchor expires.
We'll see.

Meanwhile - we have a Wally World, A super Wally World and (nearing completion)
a super-duper Wally World. FEH! FEH!, I say. And the lemming just keep paying.
It's like McDonalds.

      Title: Grape And Walnut Candy Rolls
 Categories: Five, Candies, Greek
      Yield: 2 Rolls
 
     40    Whole walnuts
     12 oz Frozen grape juice;undiluted
     10 ts Cornstarch
           Confectioners' sugar
 
  Thread a needle with 2 foot length of white, heavy-duty carpet
  thread. Tie a knot 8 inches from the end. Carefully string 20
  walnuts. Tie a knot after the last walnut. Tie thread ends together
  forming a necklace. Repeat for remaining 20 walnuts.

  Divide the grape juice concentrate. From one half, pour 1/3 cup into
  a jar. Pour the remaining amount of that half into a small saucepan.
  Heat to boiling.

  Spinkle 5 teaspoons of cornstarch into the jar of juice. Shake
  vigorously. Gradually stir into boiling juice. Cook until thick
  enough to heavily coat spoon. Remove from heat. Dip one "necklace"
  into grape juice until every nut is coated.

  Hang loop in an airy spot. Dip and hang second necklace. Allow to
  hang 30 minutes. Repeat the whole procedure. Dry necklaces several
  days until coating is no longer sticky. When dry, repeat dipping.
  Use the remaining half of grape juice and cornstarch.

  Dip necklaces twice.  Let hang to dry a week.

  When dry, snip knotted thread.  Carefully pull out. Dust rolls with 
  confectioners' sugar.

  Slice into 1/2 inch rounds.
