Whole Foods now has Just Mayo in stock for shipping. At least I hope they
do. It's the kind that must be refrigerated. They did have brown rice syrup but when I tried to place the order, it said it was out of stock. The order will arrive tomorrow, so I'll see what I will get. What I couldn't find was normal Ricotta cheese. The only stuff I found was at PCC and I physically had to go there. None was visible so I had to ask. The guy dug way to the back of the case. There were a few containers of organic stuff. Small, overpriced or really small and super overpriced. I opted for two of the small, overpriced. I don't care for cottage cheese in lasagna. I am annoyed with Safeway. I had placed an order for delivery. They had the Best Foods vegan mayo on sale. They have recently changed the recipe and online reviews are horrible but I actually like it as it doesn't separate out. The old recipe did. Anyway... I got no mayo, no ricotta, and no tamales. They don't normally sell the Texas Tamales but they were listed for sale and for about$4 less per pkg. than Central Market. I was able to get the tamales and the overpriced Ricotta there. I totally forgot to look for the mayo, hence the Whole Foods order, but if they did have it, it would likely be very overpriced. Maybe a lot of people here make lasagna for Christmas. I dunno. Safeway and Albertsons almost always seem to be out of it no matter what time of year. |

Safeway and >Albertsons almost always seem to be out of it no matter what time of year. Since I'll be home cat sitting, my wife left yesterday to visit her two sons and three grands, I will just need to cook for me and feed the cats, and give Miche his two insulin injections each day (he's doing much better), my wife will return on the 28th. I'll cook the half ham for me, my wife doesn't eat ham anyway. I've no plan to make anything to go with the ham... probably I'll have ham sandwiches with Guldens spicy brown. I need to go into town this morning for my 11 AM haircut appointment, so I'll stop at Tops and find semolina bread and onion rolls at their bakery. Julie is much too fussy an eater for someone who hardly cooks... and has to have her food delivered because she's too lazy to go to the store. |

Some things - mostly meat and beef in particular - are pricey , but the only thing we've seen here that's not fully stocked is TP . Go figure , but since we've got enough for a couple of months I'm not going to worry about it . We don't get stocked up we stay stocked up . Livin' out here in the wilderness (yeah yeah) encourages that . -- Snag Illegitimi non carborundum |

Safeway and >Albertsons almost always seem to be out of it no matter what time of year. Have you ever made your own ricotta? I made some a couple of weeks ago, and my God! It was delicious! Totally creamy, unlike commercial ricotta, which can be grainy. All you need is milk, lemon juice or vinegar (I used fresh lemon juice), and a pinch of salt. This is the recipe I used: https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/...icotta-recipe/ It will start out looking like it isnt' going to firm up, but put it in the fridge for a couple of hours and it's good.

A good recipe to save. There's always a few brands of ricitta in the markets here but one day I will use your recipe to make my own. There's always whole milk and lots of fresh lemons here, and I can always buy cream. I hope you had a Merry Christmas and have a very Happy and Healthy New Year. My mom had three sisters, the youngest sister was named Doris, one of my favorite names, didn't hurt that Doris was a gorgeous woman. |

I don't mind the triple rolls. I picked a TP holder that would accommodate them. Cindy Hamilton |

They will fit on the spindle but they will barely turn until >> some has been used. What's a TP storage container? We store about fifty rolls of TP on the top shelf of the linen closet in the hallway just outside the bathroom... inside the bathroom we have a plastic wastepaper container next to the toilet that can hold up to three rolls of Scott TP. The other bathroom also contains the clothes washer and dryer and there's a large closet that contains a pull down ironing board. The top shelf in that closet can hold 50 rolls of TP. We store a vacuum cleaner in that closet, a broom, and some other items like a large box of Tide. An extra roll of TP sits on the toilet tank lid. We always buy scott in jumbo bales, the kind of rolls with the paper over wrap. We have steel shelving units in the basement for storing extra bales of TP and paper towels. We have an entire basement wall of steel shelving units, 11 units, the 24" deep ones, for storing all kinds of things like canned foods... each has five shelves that are adjustable. I've no idea what you mean by a TP storage container. We have a TP dispenser in each bathroom, holds one roll of TP on a spindle... but thats not a storage container, it's a single roll dispenser... I've never encountered a brand of TP that wouldn't fit the dispenser, and the dispensers are very adjustable, can be mounted shimmed out from the wall and the sides can be mounted however far apart as one wants, plus the spindle is spring loaded so gives a 1/2" width adjustment. Most anything can be used as a TP storage container, a large corrogated cardboard carton would suffice, or a wooden crate from the produce department. We like to store TP so it's readily accessable. Some of yoose gals probably store TP in your bra. ![]() fact that nursing moms store TP in their bra to absorb leakage. >I like the 24 packs of single roll tp (Angel Soft).

This makes about 250 grams of ricotta. The price of ricotta cheese at WalMart is $4.97 for 475 grams. So it's about the same to make it as it is to buy it. Doris |

I have no clue what cream costs here. I bought some in NY to make ice cream. The only milk I ever have is the powdered kind. It's non-fat. Lemons are expensive here. They were cheap in NY. I don't know grams. Just far easier for me to buy it because I'd have to order the ingredients to make it. |

I never have >>> > > cream or milk here, and rarely have lemons. I do have vinegar. Doesn't seem expensive at all. Here milk by the 1/2 gallon costs about $2. Heavy cream is sold in pint containers at about $2. Fresh lemons cost very little here. a two pound bag (7-8 lemons) cost about $3.50... the bag of lemons lasts me over a month... one lemon lasts me a week. I keep one in the fridge in a zip-loc and each evening I slice off a wedge for my drinkipoo... I get 7-8 wedges from a lemon... I slice the wedges one at a time, hold to the light so I can find any seeds and pick them out with the point of a paring knife... all part of my daily ritual. When I want lemon on my salad I'll squeeze a wedge over and put the squeezed rind into my Crystal Palace glass and leave it in the fridge for later. At the end of the night before bed time I empty the glass with the rind and any remining ice out my window, by morning the rind is gone, if cold out the ice is still there. In winter deer aren't too fussy, they'll eat any vegetation they find, even lemon rinds. Wild birds peck at citrus rinds all year. I'm not sure if it's only deer that eat the vegetation I toss outside, could be possoms, racoons, skunks, even chipmonks. Nothing edible ever goes into the trash, critters love apple cores and especially melon rinds... deer like banana peels. I cut up two small pumpkins that we grew and used for decor, yesterday I tossed those out, seeds too, all gone by morning. Sometimes a squirrel will tunnel into a pumpkin and eat all the seeds, they'll eat squash seeds too. When I scoop out seeds I see no point in putting them in the trash when the critters will happily eat them. We grow more squash and pumpkin than we can eat or give away. Even though critters won't eat onion trimmings those go in the composter. >>> > As per the recipe, the cream is not necessary. In Canada, one liter >>> > of milk is about $2.00.

I'd like to see what everything on it looks like. I had mine with a pesto on the bottom. My son had a more restrained pizza. Perhaps this is the future of pizza. https://photos.app.goo.gl/qs9JAsT18DtNHSHH8 |
