That’s extra funny, considering what the eggplant emoji is generally used to represent in texting.

Hmmm. A significance I am apparently unaware of...That’s extra funny, considering what the eggplant emoji is generally used to represent in texting.
PS, obtained 3 more eggs for a haul of 7 total. Time to consider making a quiche.
It’s commonly used as a stand-in, so to speak, for a certain bit of the male anatomy.
Kids these days, huh?
Today I recieved:
Fresh curry leaves
Fresh fenugreek leaves
White (small round) Thai aubergines
From the same company I also ordered what I thought were Indian bay leaves but turned out to be European bay. Since I have three bay trees in the garden, I really don't need them.

Hmm. I thought that would be bananas??? Or Cukes? Or are some men just thinking some things are wider, rather than longer??It’s commonly used as a stand-in, so to speak, for a certain bit of the male anatomy.

Got out to do grocery shopping today and among the things I picked up were the following ...
I’ll admit, I could eat a hundred of those pizza rolls…which is why I don’t buy them.Got out to do grocery shopping today and among the things I picked up were the following ...

I don't have them often, but they help give me some variety when doing quick microwave food. I don't prefer Totino's.

I have to buy some crabmeat today. Always an adventure
Where do you buy it? I mean is it difficult to find fresh crab in Ohio?

The local supermarket sells packages of it, though not super fresh. I don't eat a ton of crab, there are a few fishmongers who may have good options, but it's going in rice so not trying to break the bank
Fresh crab is hard to find unless you are on the coast, or have deep pockets. Most crab is caught and frozen immediately, for travel to stores inland. Actually, unless you buy live crabs, you are better off with frozen.
You can also buy crab meat in cans/tins. A lot of labor goes into that, so it isn't cheap. Carb meat is graded here, and the top grades are pricey.

Jungle Jim’s sells fresh crab (and a lot of other stuff like that), but that’s just the Cincy area.

Not the brand that I wanted, but this was all they had
That is a brand I keep in my pantry. I haven't seen the Arborio in the store, but I haven't looked for it, either.
I'm sure the Arborio is not grown in Texas. They grow long-grain varieties here.
