Standing Rib Roast (again)
I just called Publix. Yes, the price has come down. $6.99/lb as
opposed to $8.99/lb last week. And yes, I can buy it on the bone.  Jill |

What I think is funny is that some folks pay extra high prices for grass fed (not feedlot) beef, while others pay extra low prices for grass fed (not feedlot) beef that is sold ungraded, and comes from Mexico. At one discount retailer, you can buy boneless ribeyes (family pack) for $5.99/#. They are called "USDA Inspected." What they are is grass fed beef from Mexico, inspected for safety, but not graded. The meat is less tender, and has the grass fed flavor, which I find less flavorful, but they are also likely to be more healthful that USDA Choice. http://save-a-lot.com/weeklyad use zip 63105 to see ad > > sf --Bryan |

Von's has 'ribeye roast', bone in, for $5.88 a pound. Ralph's, $6.77. Smart & Final, $5.69. In the recent past, it would have been under $5, and even a bit under $4 if I was lucky. |

In California, it's every 5 years. Before 60, you can do it by mail for 1 or 2 renewals, until they want you to get a new picture. Senior ID is good for 10 years. |

I'm not a "senior" by most US government standards. Yet my South Carolina drivers license (issued in 2010) doesn't expire until 2020. And yes, they want you to get a new picture. When I lived in Tennessee I could renew online... but at some point they definitely would have said nope, you need to come in. Unless you're dead, your appearance tends to change as you get older.

I do have to wonder > why you surmise they'd have a better quality rib roast. > > J The Costco stores in our area have excellent meat departments. The meat is cut in house and they sell lots of meat to many restaurants. The one I go to also usually has a selection of prime cuts available. Always have prime tenderloin steak available. The meat is high quality and usually a few dollars a pound cheaper than the super markets. Sometimes the cuts and packages are too large, but always good for the freezer. I drove to Costco just to buy my Thanksgiving brisket, and I am glad I did. It was beautiful and the price was okay (beef prices are only "okay" right now). Do NOT buy meat at the Sam's Clubs in our area. All the meat is cut and packaged elsewhere and is not of high quality. DaleP |

I was driving on an expired license for about a month. I just kept forgetting about it. In MD if you haven't renewed an expired drivers license in a year you have to retake the drivers tests. No thanks. > I hope Winco saves some roasts for me. Everyone knows about the sale > and the sizes get picked over. I don't want a huge roast. Good luck! -- ღ.¸¸.œ«*¨`*œ¶ Cheryl |

Gosh I must be eh? LOL I can assure you we have never renewed ours every 10 year so we must be very special. Especially for the expert on UK law .... Squertz!! "Though the photocard needs to be renewed every 10 years, in general, driving licences are valid until you're 70, after which it needs renewing every three years. If you only need to update your address or name, or you're over 70 and you're just renewing it, this is free." I didn't even get a photocard until after I had cataract surgery and himself not until his paper licence was falling to piece, which was relatively recently. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

Do you have to provide a new photo each time? We do - I get a letter telling me it's up for renewal in a couple of months and I simply go in, stand by the counter, camera behind the clerk takes the pic. Go back to my seat and a few minutes later there it is, laminated, etc. It's the most useful piece of ID here (mainly because of the photo) has one's address and also a box which is checked if you wish to be an organ donor in the event. |

I make it differently every time, depending on what's available... I like tofu, I use it in soups and it's my substitute for fehta in Greek salad, I don't like fehta, its texture gives me the shivers. I often add different mushrooms (I maintain a stock of dried too) and I can get canned straw and ennoki. I've even done Chinese tomato egg drop Aloha Style, w/Julienned SPAM... actually quite good... add some green onion and crunchy raw bean sprouts for texture. There's no limit to what ingredients can go into soups, just a matter of knowing the rules of what goes well together and what combinations are TIAD, ie. garlic is wonderful in chicken eggdrop but TIAD in tomato egg drop. |

Why did you bother to light the oven, coulda done that sear in a hot pan, actually that's not sear, it's char, it's burnt... now all it's good for is pot roast, after you trim away that char. If a restaurant tried to serve that it would get sent back... I bet you didn't eat it either... you should be embarrassed to display that wreck. I don't think my feral cats would eat that, I'd have to hack it up and feed that road kill to the crows. Failure Dwarf! |

Do you have to provide a new photo each time? That is part of the renewal process. You take an eye test, get your picture taken and off you go. Under certain circumstances you might have to take a written test or a driven test. (Moving to another state for instance) I remember taking my driving portion of the test in Minnesota in a blizzard. Snow was piled high by the plows and the course was indicated by orange flags posted on tops of mountains of snow. I passed. Janet US |

I was at the store yesterday and they had a few out, and some with bone in not on sale yet. I'll go back when the next sale starts or look for sale prices in another store. Maybe Harris Teeter or Wegmans; since we're doing a family brunch I might just make a dinner on Saturday for mom and me. I bought a New York Strip roast that will go in the freezer for later, and maybe cut into thick steaks when I take it out. http://i66.tinypic.com/15wh15v.jpg http://i66.tinypic.com/bge2v5.jpg > On bones: > http://i63.tinypic.com/16c1klx.jpg > I really don't trust meat thermometers, I'd rather trust time, > temperature, and experience... so two and a half hours at 325ºF: > http://i63.tinypic.com/4zwpk.jpg > Let it rest twenty minutes, never really know till ya slice into it, > I'd say I hit it spot on: > http://i64.tinypic.com/25a0o69.jpg I'd say you did! > Three quart pot, the meatless oriental soup I prepared for brunch, > saved half for tomorrow: > http://i66.tinypic.com/311qo8z.jpg You made a small batch for you.
