Another World Market deal, looks like pickup in store only, out of stock online, is two kinds of Italian canned tomatoes La Fiammante, I couldn't get the whole peeled ones locally, but got the diced ones for the pantry. Anyone have experience with this brand?

Dang, I went in for 10. You went All In. Congrats. Bagna Cauda is my weakness, my tasty, tasty weakness.

Does posset develop a "skin" like custard? The uncovered refrigeration part has me a bit worried about a skin forming.

Ortiz Anchovies at World Market at a fantastic price. Free pickup if local to a store, it seems.

Or plum. My favorite, favorite is a plum crisp. I would call that a crisp since it has oatmeal in the topping. Crumbles were always just flour, sugar, butter topping where I originated from.

"By the pricking of my thumbs, something Prime this way comes........" Two day Prime Day this year.

Yes, I saw them just recently. I think they had a couple types of varieties. I have lots of cheese in the cheese drawer, so I didn't pay too much attention. Arizona Costcos.

@Shelby I like those deviled eggs, but I love that plate under them in the pic.

Amazon Treasure Truck had a Shun Classic Hollow Ground Santoku 7" yesterday for $94.99. I bit, now I have a Shun!

I have Alexa, Echo, and Siri in the vicinity. When one of them does something I need to turn off, I frequently find myself yelling "SiriEchoAlexa stop!" Just like parents with multiple kids and combining all the names when yelling at them, hoping to get the right one eventually.

Yep. Nando's, sounds pretty good to me.

I made a lasagne with a brie bechamel that was really, really good once upon a time. Would making this cheese sauce with brie, on the medium thin side, essentially sub out for a bechamel? Would it break on the rebaking?

Costco/Kirkland Honey Mustard Snack mix. Good with beer.

I just saw something on the Townsends youtube channel about bread baking in the remote areas of the 1800's using dried unbaked dough from a previous sourdough batch as the yeast starter. The piece he used was 2 years old and looked like a very dry cookie. He broke it into small pieces easily, I would think it could resemble flour if broken down enough. Perhaps this is "yeast flour"?

$40-$60 I guess, I like my Max Burton so I'd like to stay with a brand I trust so far. $40-$60 would be an extremely good deal on a Burton if its possible. Blue sky prime day deal would be a Vacmaster chamber vacuum 210 or 215, one can hope............................. I guess I should fire up my camelcamelcamel for watching those deals ahead of Prime Day.

Maybe if they offer a smoking deal on a good quality basic induction hob I'd bite.

I do this with Kewpie mayo. My family looks at me cross-eyed, but I love it. Not a common practice in North America.

I am still in process of formulating my future kitchen. I am terrified at the "opportunity" to buy modern appliances. The reviews on refrigerators alone are depressing. I want a simple freezerless fridge with no water dispenser or bells and whistles. I will have a dedicated freezer elsewhere. I am not looking forward to the decisions on appliances. dishwashers....don't get me started.........

I kept getting coupons from Amazon Restaurants, like $10 off types, never used them. I don't know anyone that used the service locally. I use Amazon heavily but that was one of their services that didn't resonate with my lifestyle.

Somehow I ended up with a can of Korean whelks. Dunno, maybe I thought I was buying clams while on cold medicine, but wow, that was a shock to find in the pantry. I decided to walk on the wildside and pickle them. Here we go......................

Ok, Ok, after my Baltic shores jaunt, I am so coming to Ecuador.

I bought some voatsiperifery peppercorns weeks ago (says 2018/2019 harvest) off Amazon since these are spoken about in mythic terms by some. I was really happy with the flavor, so different to standard peppercorns. I detect a resiny, piney flavor along with a fruity pepper heat. I bought them their own grinder and it sits on the counter next to the standard pepper grinder. Now I'm jazzed to try the rest of the list, I'll probably start with Sir Spice's offerings per andiesenji's blog.

Hand pies made from fresh picked peaches. Various sizes and various browning due to homemade-ness. All butter pie crust and topped with sparkling sugar crystals I found way back in the pantry.

I went to TJ's to get the Chocolate Chip Pain au Lait, but sold out, sad face. I grabbed a bag of the Benne Wafer cookies, from Savannah GA. Tiny cookies, crispy, caramelly, salty, and nice healthy hit of sesame nuttiness. These are very dangerous and want you to eat the whole bag at a sitting.
