@Paul Bacino do I love stuffed shells ! yours look fantastic !

thank you Aldi Fans for your input. i noticed @ Aldi they have some refrigerated Salmon. I did not look too closely at it ut it looked very similar to refrigerated Salmon @ TJ's from Norway. Ive tried it in the past @ TJ's and as long as you look in to the ' back ' of the selection its a day or so fresher @ TJ's I liked it , given Im looking for a nice piece very close to the head. note salmon fat. I appreciate the comments on Fish @ Aldi what this Norwegean fish an item you tried ? Steelhead etc , Ill have to look for that. thank your for your input. cheers

My fond-Less set is fine I wonder if non-stick simply can't handle temps over 350 or so and then degrades faster @ 450 I take all reviews in , w a bit of skepticism

all the different units i looked into both Bev and Cuisi seem to have complains on how log the non-stick surface lasts.

its also cheaper @ Amazon ; https://www.amazon.com/Breville-BGR820XL-Smart-Grill/dp/B003SIN0BC/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=Breville+Smart+Grill+%26+Griddle&qid=1617549559&sr=8-3 but several reviewer's had significant issues w the non-stick surface after a year.

Aldi is really a fine complement to TJ's TJ['s has quite a few things I like that Aldi does not and Aldi has some very good sales. I got some of the Aldi large Eggs. they were $ 1.79 Id been getting extra large brown eggs , which were $ 3.25 the Aldi large eggs were exactly the same size as the extra large ( by weight ) I noticed they seemed larger than ' regular ' large eggs go figure.

I wonder why the Breville only has one ' ribbed ' platr thus you have to buy a second one id you want grill marks ob both sides of your item : https://www.amazon.com/Breville-BGR820RP-Smart-Grill-Ribbed/dp/B003SIFCMC/ref=pd_bxgy_img_2/131-5570512-5638352?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B003SIFCMC&pd_rd_r=029f9988-0b61-40f3-a6e2-7c282c4c1f34&pd_rd_w=YvinK&pd_rd_wg=ULr5J&pf_rd_p=f325d01c-4658-4593-be83-3e12ca663f0e&pf_rd_r=JQ4ZYP9CP5WR0Y6DJ88F&psc=1&refRID=JQ4ZYP9CP5WR0Y6DJ88F maybe not important ? it is very cool looking where did you order from ? Amazon has them stock did you find a better price ?

what do you think the final ' proof ' is ? that might be the harshness if its too high. although you really are hoping for someting ' home made ' a drop or two of Grande Marnier might be helpful understanding it Orange based.

I now examine the Aldi weekly circular with renewed interest ! as we all know , Ad's are a series of lies. misdirection , etc. so : Aldi Savers ( in Red ! ) ' savings on savings on savings ' however , some Aldi savers indicate what the price ' was ' and what it is now. [ ed: pls excuse . it's a slow day . sunny , warm in the back room , but cold outside ] in this week's circular ( in black for the price 0 there are items from Germany : ' Deutsche Kuche ' brand apologies to Duvel , can't remember the APPL key sequence for an Umlat I take it that the german items were a one time , large purchase at a value point , and when gone , gone. fine TJ's in California did this from time to time , etc they do offer this week , in black type a 20 lbs bird seed bag : " Heart to Tall Wild Bird Seed " : $ 6.99 I used to get 40 lbs bags at Walmart , and now get them from TheWall on line , as Walmart is not a place I might go to any time soon the price difference is : $ 6.00. nice. but nicer for me , I can deal w 20 lbs bags. I'll get one on Tues ( senior hours ) and see if there are significant difference from the Penningtons Walmart version Im guessing the sunflower seeds are the most expensive in the bag anyone get these bags ? of course , in my area the Squirrels eat most of the SSS before the cardinals arreive so ...................

there is also a very good chance the L upper square was rotated 180 degrees. is there a second prize ?

@Kim Shook this looks like a puzzle to me. Fortunately , I solved it. And I claim to be the first : it's the top R square that has been rotated 90 degrees clockwise. 1/4 turn. I hope there is a prize.

Aldi // TJ's breakfast : sorry no mise Aldi Brioche HD buns Aldi cut in 1/2 Bavarian Bratwursts sliced 1/2 ie One Brat = two items above why ? less NaCl // mouth gobble red onions, minced TJ's dijon mustard + Tj's sweet chili sauce , mixed together [ed.: this is a simpler way to make your own ' Honey Mustard ' I do have real honey this is simpler. TJ's Pepper Jelly works well here too ] Micro the split sausage for , 45 sec ? torch for Mallirad good-ness micro the buns , 10 sec or so , for ' steam-buns ' then assemble delicious it was however , I wonder if plain buns might be better ? we will see. the ' Sweet-spicy-Dijon makes this '' dish ""

McD is back to sending me in the mail 2 for 1 offers. https://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en-us.html note that now the pics at least imply melted cheese in 10 to 20 years , they might manage to melt the cheese actually @ McD anyway Vaxx's # 2 is coming up very soon and I might do a Drive Thr0iugh for a pair oc Chicken Sand's maybe Wendy's might send me some coupons as in the era Before their crispy spicy CkSand ( w extra tomato and pickles ) was quite nice 2 for 1 of course.

@kayb I am enjoying the pics of your garden i enjoyed gardening years ago and discovered early on Black Plastic and Reemay , woven fiber I hope you are aware of it : https://cedarcirclefarm.org/tips/entry/geotextiles and example from Google search ite extended my growing at leasts a month in each direction here in NewEnglansd. and you can use it over and over again it it light , and I used to lay it over the growing plants and it did not bother them. rain passes right through I forgot what my supplier was , but its not expensive if you get it from a very large garden supplier. and can be used for years.

wow 1 qt mineral oil wow

no wine in Aldi in MA the Gov / etc distant relatives control wine etc than the licenses so no wine. TJ's is fine or me these days. in Brookline , several towns over , toward BOS with very little parkeing the TJ's others sells "" Booze !" it's a town decision in MA and its very expensive for a Restaurant to be able to get a liquor license I don't wonder why. I know . Beer and wine should vibe included in any health departments certification oF any restaurant booze ? not so much Im pretty progressive No ? Thai noodle should be able to sever Ice Cold Singha See ?

no , just one. Im not really a Ham Man Im more of a Sale Hound. Ill trim it up into ' several day ' portions ChamberVac and freeze. I do plan to soak the slices in ice cold water for a few hours pre-use. pat dry Con-Aga's does of NaCL won't suit me in a few years\ Im in Training now ! and make a H&Swiss tonmorro no Swiss @ Aldi have some Jack Cheese , best I could find pre-slided best I coud find will find some real Swiss @ TJ's not that " Baby Swiss " which is &W*%&$_%@_E%@

I went to Aldi , and was very brave I thought. I did fib a bit : its 10 minus away , leaving 2 minutes to put on my BodyArmour and Respiratory System. in the parking lot. one person ahead of me , and already in the store. plenty of wipes and hand sanitary stuff as you enter the store i huge. 2 - 3 X the previouos store Ive been to in era Before. very wide aisles. fully stocked. some shelf space next to a few items , but those items were in stock , just not a zillion boxes. two people that worked there were in the store and one took me to the Ham selection , fully stocked including the sale ham. so many interesting items Id forgotten about. chocolat selection had everything. A favorite tortellini selection I would get at RocheBro brand name Buttoni : chicken and herb they had , at 1/2 the price. their store brand , but ingredients looked the same will try tonight. RocheBro has taken a serious hit cheese selectio9n a bit weak. will continue to use Tj's for that. fresh rolls , spinach in a bag that was not ' baby ' [ they had that too ] more of Teenager Spinach. tomatoes on the vine etc. I did get three different brie's , a blue , and two brands. will try them as soon as they age. TJ's has a fine selection of brie , from FR I used to get the one that oozes , most awful looking pieces , and age them at home. all in all , a wonderful selection.. of stuff made ,my day. I felt comfortable moseying around taking my time and getting the lay of the land and were the stuff was I was interested in. lucky me ! no wine though. TJ's for that , eventually when my stock runs low.

Have not been to my Local Aldi just yet 5 minuts away TJ's : 12 minutes away. they have senior hours tue / thurs. Im one week out for Vaxx # 2. I might go to Aldi tomorrow the Aldi I used to goto in the Era Before 20 - 25 minutes away was not very well stocked, I did enjoy their selection of European choloclat bars. wish me luck !

@Smithy indeed ! not so much the CkFat for me but some like it

@KennethT I think they use kaffir lime leaves and thai basil.

P.S.: had 1/3d of the above @ room temp for breakfast . delicious . I did have to keep an eye on the green peppercorns !

a friend of mine , who is the custodian of Penny and Leo drove out to my area , and even farther to Thai Noodle , my favorite restaurant. I haven't been there in over 14 months. they are still in business he brought me Tod Man , and Duck s green peppercorns @ line leaves. asked for extra grpeppercorns. no [pic of the TodMun , got devoured first but : N.B.: there were 8 green peppercorn ' clumps ' you see three here. + many loose I had this w an ice cold Hoponius Union , brewed one town over that was 15 months old , in my refrigerator. delicious both were together I did have to be very careful w the Green peppercorn clumps. bit into a clump one might be sorry. Im convinced the H.U. was better after its rest in the refrigerator. I have one more in there and will save it , and try it w a re-supply of the same net time I myself go to Thai Noodle. Yum Yum !

@paulraphael I can't address the Bamix watts etc but , I have many immersion blenders as I understand it : raw oatmeal is an issue : Steel-cut ? Rolled ? etc ? why not just get those oats ( dry ) in an inexpensive ' coffee blade mill " turn it on , shake = Oat Meal ie meal as is flour what it courser ? use a bit less time.

apples ; w the skin on : Apple Crisp/ w what ever you have that might be a bit buttery toasted nut like and brown sugar-y
