It’s actually a spinach, onion and garlic ciabatta loaf from a bakery in Maine called When Pigs Fly Bread. My wife’s friend lives up there and got us a loaf or two when they came down to visit. We first tried it a few years ago when we went on a trip up their way. They do deliver, and it is pricey, but it’s worth it if you get a bunch of stuff.

I appreciate the honest reply, and I hope I didn’t come across as condescending in my last post as it was not meant to be an attack, but more of a “huh?” statement. All of those are valid concerns, but I would argue that while not perfect, they’re a much better version of Sam’s/Walmart/Target, and their bulk goods offering doesn’t put them in direct competition with smaller mom and pop stores due to consumers not being able to get quantities/brands that they always want. It’s also very supportive to markets like local restaurants and stores that don’t have built in supply chains that may not want to shop at conglomerate supply stores.

Short version, I don’t necessarily agree with you, but I appreciate your perspective and the well thought out response.

At least half of these are the “Why he say fuck me for!?” meme. Costco actually treats their employees well, has razor thin margins, keeps profits low to maximize value, and pays living wages. Also, $1.50 hotdogs in 2023 is bordering on insanity as far as value is concerned.

I also have no idea how you truly avoid all of these without living like Ted Kaczynski.

There's always a canal. Or an inlet. Or a fjord…

Mega Man 2. Every song on every level is an absolute banger. EVERY SINGLE ONE. I’ll die on that hill.

Shoutout to Control though for that one song in that one level (if you know, you know).

Ninja edit to add River City Girls 1 &2, both are excellent.

I didn’t get too close, this pic is fairly zoomed in, but I believe it’s just young.

100% agree on all of those. Adding bacon to the chicken patty version would probably blow your socks off.

I’ve made them before using the food network recipe, but for this one I used the wild salmon burgers from Wegmans. Personally, I really like to stack flavors and I didn’t think anything really overpowered the salmon taste. It was messy as all hell though.

He’s more of a rabbit of the people

Absolutely! Let me know if you give it a try!

I think you can easily make the same/similar with a beyond or veggie burger, and I hope you give it a shot😁

It’s a garlic cheddar roll from a local bakery chain called Great Harvest. Perfect for burgers of any kind, but I have to admit, I like the name Avo McSalmon quite a bit!

Mooooaybe

So, like, is this real or just a metaphor for the country?

Ingredients:

Mac & Cheese:

• 16oz Lump crab meat (or crab cake mix)
• 2 Shallots (minced)
• 2 cups Half & half
• 4oz Cream cheese
• 2-4oz Aged white cheddar cheese shredded (depending on how cheesy you like it)
• 2-4oz Havarti cheese shredded (depending on how cheesy you like it)
• 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
• 1/2 tsp Paprika
• 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
• 1 tsp Dry mustard
• 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 2 tbsp Flour
• 1/2lb Elbow macaroni

Topping:

• 1/2 Loaf of the bread of your choosing cubed (I use an olive oil and rosemary sourdough from Wegmans)
• 1 tbsp Butter
• 2 Sprigs parsley
• Salt/Pepper

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 350F
• Bring pot of water to a boil for your pasta, salting the water accordingly
• Over low heat, melt butter and cook shallots for a few minutes until translucent in a large pan
• Add flour and turn up heat to medium, stirring to combine evenly
• Add half and half, paprika, dry mustard, cayenne pepper, Old Bay, and Worcestershire sauce
• Bring the béchamel to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes or until thickened
• While the sauce is simmering, cook the pasta and drain 1-2 minutes prior to package directions (should be al dente)
• Take the béchamel off the heat and add the cream cheese and fresh shredded cheddar/havarti in batches, whisking until fully combined/melted
• Fold in crab meat/pasta and season with salt/pepper, adding lemon juice at the end
• In a separate pan, add reserved butter, salt/pepper and parsley melting until bubbling has subsided, then add cubed bread and combine
• Add Mac and cheese to a baking dish and top with bread mixture
• Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top is browned
• Let sit for 5 minutes to cool then serve and enjoy!

Edit for formatting :/

It’s a ton of fun, and I hope you check it out! As an fyi on the combat, it is very perfect block centric like Seikiro, which I know is not everyone’s favorite Fromsoft game. I think the demo that’s out there gives you a pretty substantial preview though, so feel free to judge for yourself :)

I started Starfield and dropped it after about 3ish hours (happy for you if you liked it, I just couldn’t find anything interesting there), beat Lies of P (could be the best of the non-Bandai soulsbourne games), and just started up The Lamplighters League (a fun X-com style game that’s good, but REALLY poorly optimized, so buyer beware).

Looking forward to Spider-man 2 though, only a few more weeks!

As someone who does it on a regular basis, I cannot recommend it enough. It is DELIGHTFUL.

RecipeBox is another good one that has a recipe search function and a grocery list function that connects to your recipes and populates what you need directly from the recipe itself.
