    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    I'm sad. I'm disgusted. I'm hating politics right now. I saw the up close video. It was horrible.

    I love podocarpus. I was able to trim, hedge and keep them alive in San Jose for years and years! In fact the one at my first home there from 1989, is still going strong.

    What's for dinner?

    I had thawed four chicken thighs and so son put them on the BBQ. They were labeled as from Dec 22, and I'm sure that I'll be really really sad when all that chicken from '22 to '24 gets used up. Chicken is getting expensive, so I'm glad I hoarded it back when it was under a dollar per lb.

    Agreed FJ. I used to buy No Roll alot for the restaurant chain Stuart Anderson's Black Angus. Those were trending up to Upper Choice, as we called it back in the 80's.

    The Freeze-Drying Thread

    @VJohnson You've been missed. Also I noted that the Ridgefield Costco has the HR small on sale for $1300. I'm considering it.

    What's for dinner?

    I opened a jar of home canned potatoes, added fresh zucchini, dried onions, dried spinach, some home canned corned beef hash, and a sprinkle of fake bacon. Simmered and then dropped 6 eggs into the mix. Covered and let simmer. YUMMY, with toast on the side!

    What's for dinner?

    I tried my hand at smash burgers. They were actually better than slightly flattened burgers (frying pan) cus they were crispier.

    Food prices June 2021

    At our Dept at the County Fair, we had a 42% increase in the number of jars entered, vs last year? Why? A very very active FB group is one reason. I'd like to think that folks are canning and dehydrating and freeze drying anything they can get their hands on, at a sale or clearance price...
