If there’s no red wavy lines.... it’s *perfect.*  Let me toot my own horn for my typing skills.

My local grocery store lets you cash in points on your turkey. Shop for all the non-perishable necessities during the month while those points rack up. A few items here and there added to your regular trip won’t be as noticeable as a massive shopping bill. Don’t wait till the last minute to cash in those points,…

Don’t forget about Nilla Wafers!

A lot of houses in my sister’s neighborhood keep a cooler of beer or other adult beverage to give the parents something to pick up on their way.  It turned into a whole beer exchange where they had just as many different beers back in their cooler as what they had given out.

I thought that was a photo of the “Gray Ghost Whopper” referenced in the first paragraph.

I’ve been Team Haribo for a long time, but the Albanese gummies are right up there with them. I still prefer the variety of Haribo, and their cola bottles & “fizzy” (sour) cola bottles are my all-time favorite... but in a strict side-by-side of Regular Gummy Bears, the Albanese flavors have won me over.

My local beer stores have a discount rack for any stock they’re trying to move. I’ve found some great deals on beers and malt beverages of *all* qualities, and sometimes think I’m the only person taking advantage.

You gotta live your best life.  Who are we to judge???

I love that 3 Pepper sauce on the turkey slider.  That's way better than $1.50 should taste.

The Dark Russets have a deep flavor that combines really well with the sweetness of the onion dip. If I didn’t have that specific variety I would choose regular UTZ Ripple Cut (pretty clear where I was raised, I’d say).

I brought a homemade onion dip to a Thanksgiving dinner and got some odd looks from people that maybe expected more from me? Those looks disappeared when they tasted it.

I've never done anything but order ahead through the app.  It's always correct, and I rarely have to wait past the pickup time.

And if you like this, order the piccata next time you’re at a decent Italian place.

2002-03 was the last Maxima that could claim it.  The 5.5 gen got the 3.5 instead of 3.0 and could be had with a 6-spd.  2004 started the 6th gen with 10 more hp and still had a manual, but it was bigger and heavier.

You keep applying *your* experience level, *your* ability to learn, and *your* desire to get out of the store as quickly as possible to ALL shoppers in the store.

I mix BBQ with some brown deli mustard for the same effect.  Add some dill relish to take it over the top!

I’d like to try it for the flavor, but grocery stores sell bags of pre-shredded cabbage so the kraut isn’t really a time saver.  I’ve made plenty of slaw in my day but never chopped a single head of cabbage.

Pork works so well with a variety of fruits. I did a pork roast with cranberry ketchup a while back. Last week I made a compote/chutney with some fresh nectarines that I cooked down with some molasses, spices, and malt vinegar.  Used that to top some thick cut chops and was a very happy camper.

Get a dog.

The part of our population that makes up “potentially insufferable customers” seems to think that the world was just going to snap back to pre-pandemic activity and behavior after a world-altering event.  They are obviously not equipped to deal with any kind of change.  I’d love to see a survey of those individuals…
