Post Christmas/ Channukah

Looks like whatever rush there was for the holiday is over.  Starting next week we'll look forward to the new year, and with Congress dithering on the payroll tax deduction it looks like most people will have even less money in their pockets than they do now.  Although the 2% they are talking about is not a make or break deal for most people.  Especially for the people these pious hypocrites claim they are fighting for.  If anything it will just convince them to be lighter on their grocery shopping than they have been.  This of course translates into another slow month in the produce business.  I am firmly convinced we will not see a rebound in demand until more people get back on the employment rolls.
