What produce/ingredients did you buy or obtain today (2024)?

We went to a grocery store that Craig had been to once a couple of years ago to look around when they first opened local to us. It's a small local chain with several stores. They always have good specials, but we don't shop at because they didn't have carts for disabled people to ride in while shopping, which I need. I dropped Craig off today because there were 2 specials too good to pass up. Rack of lamb from New Zealand for $13.99 a pound and pork belly for $2.99 a pound. Well, they have carts now so I went in.

We're going to shop there regularly now. Produce was really nice and huge selection. They have a nice cheese selection. Huge selection of beef, pork, lamb, chicken, goat cuts. I don't think there is a cut they don't have. They even had frozen blood products and beef tallow.

We came home with 2 frenched rack of lambs, a piece of pork belly big enough for a small porchetta, some farmer's cheese, jars of hot and mild BBQ sauce that is a favorite of ours and hard to find, made in Florida, small batch, and 3 jars of Cholula salsa, green, original red and smoked chipotle. Never tried that brand, but Craig likes their hot sauce so...

I see no toast on this thread, but I guessed you were referring to toast.
Originally I was referring to the mere 3 pats of butter up against the other produce you have bought - under-doing it as usual 😂

I’m utterly lost. Best I yield and say, “Yes, ma’am,” and remember some things I’m just not ever going to get.

Not sure what I did or said, but sorry! 😵‍💫

She's trying to say you didn't buy enough butter in a round about way, even with the 3 packages of Kerrygold, and referencing your toast from the breakfast thread.

:banghead: There’s a lot of butter in the picture, so it was sarcasm (the fun kind) that there wasn’t enough.

Sorry I forget sarcasm or saying the exact opposite isn’t an automatic default in other countries.

Thats so wasn’t worth it was it 😂

And I took it as being silly and was responding in that way.

The two gummy bear thingies are for great-nibs of MrsT’s. Dog biscuits for the neighbor’s dog. One pud for me, one for a friend. Our fourth bottle of nog. 😳

Got the last box of Roses. Can’t believe I missed getting a free tin by just one box of Chex - I didn’t even read the front.

That’s our prime rib - mildly annoyed, as they were selling them as fast as they could get them processed, so there weren’t any out. I had to ask the butcher, and instead of bringing me out three or four to choose from, he brought me one.

Granted, it’s likely one I would have chosen anyway, but I still would have liked some input. MrsT was apoplectic with not being able to look through every single one they had, even though she’d tell you herself she has no idea what she’s looking for.

MrsT on our way into the market: “Don’t go in here buying a bunch of cookies we don’t need. We have plenty of them at home!”
