  1. If you've been living here three years, you probably know the brand Dar-vida, that makes the cracker-like sesame thingies? If you buy the coop ones, not the Prix Garantie, just the regular coop brand, "exclusivité coop", it comes in a green pack and is of course cheaper than dar-vida's... You know what's engraved in these ones (or at least was the last time I checked)?

    dar-vida.

    Yup, same product, they didn't even bother to produce a non-brand-engraved version.

    Just a little story that your budget crackers comment made me think of.

  5. When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.
