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

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

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...

What a lovely produce post! Great stuff, I want to go there now!

Now what in earth was it I needed it for?

As per usual you're under-doing the butter

How so? It’s double-buttered (butter once, let it melt, then butter again).

100% correct but it looks like you only have enough there for 3 rounds of toast?!

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

How so?

I think you missed it!

I think you missed it!

I think I’m still missing it!

? - sorry, I’m lost. Toast was good, though.

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

Subliminal suggestion from all the recent discussion!

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.

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.
