Hi Sean,

We've had Wegman's here for 4 years now and we'll still
go to one in NY if we're up there and need something. (G)

When I was driving to Williamsport, PA for work, I'd stay at the
downtown Holiday Inn. There was a huge Wegman's right net to it. The Wegman's was always busy but I went there specifically for their deli
and its prepared meals. I enjoyed getting settled into my room after
a long drive, driving next dfoor to Wegmans and getting a meal. I'd
eat it in my hotel room a=nd get to bed as I had to be at woek by

7 AM the next morning.

That's bright and early! My mom used to say it was "getting up before breakfast" which didn't make sense then or now. (G) Did you ever take
time to fully explore a Wegman's store? The one near Dale and Gale Shipp
in MD was huge; I think much bigger than the one in Brockport (NY) where
we usually shop at when up that way and somewhat bigger than the one we
have locally. But, maybe it's because I shop those 2, especially the
latter, so I'm familiar with the layout. There's all sorts of goodies to
be found in the store. And yes, we've seen the Williamsport store, from
the highway, as we're headed north to see family or south from visiting
family.

It was a Mitsubishi Mirage.

I'm going to test drive one of those next week.

We found it to be quite loud inside, lots of road noise. But, we're used
to a Ford F-150 which sits higher up and less road noise. Steve said the
trunk space was quite roomy--we each had a roller bag, my concentrator
(with battery bag) and Steve's C-Pap machine. I think he was able to get
it all in the trunk.

Title: Shrimp and Rice Stir Fry
Categories: Dinner, Low fat, Main meal, Mom's recip
Yield: 4 Servings

Looks good; I just finished off my left overs from going out to one of
my favorite Mexican places the other day. I usually (and did this time)
get Tierra y Mar--it has shrimp, scallops, chicken, zuchinni and yellow
squash, tomato, mushrooms, onions and green pepper served on yellow rice
with cheese sauce. I used to be able to eat the whole thing for one meal
but now I split it over 2 or 3, with extra cheese sauce. The seafood is
cooked until just done so its almost melt in your mouth; reheating on a
lower microwave setting doesn't toughen it.

1 lb Shrimp; Cooked

Make sure the shrimp are peeled and deveined before adding. This may be
done before or after cooking them.

Decades of being a sysop have taught me the signs of a fading hard
drive. It happens. Thankfully I have excellent software that can help
me diagnose issues as well as friends who can give me advice.

An aside to the current convo: when I have a car, I usually will get
gas at Sam's Club or Murphy USA. They're both the cheapest in town
and not too far away from me. Using Murphy USA's loyalty program, I
can often get a lower price than Sam's if I get enough gas for the
month. Usually between 10 cents to 20 cents cheaper than Sam's Club.

Murphy is responsible for me being able to reply to this (and three
other) post. Seems the BBS drive on Sean's confuser went "wonky".
And the replacement still had the posts I had "fat fingered" into the bit-bucket yesterday.

Decades of being a sysop have taught me the signs of a fading hard
drive. It happens. Thankfully I have excellent software that can help
me diagnose issues as well as friends who can give me advice.

Having been involved w/confusers since they were a "hot button" issue
in the pages of Popular Science and Mechanix Illustrated I'm much the
same on catching issues early. Sadly, at my advanced years, most of my
friends and advisors have shuffled off to take the dirt nap.

An aside to the current convo: when I have a car, I usually will get
gas at Sam's Club or Murphy USA. They're both the cheapest in town
and not too far away from me. Using Murphy USA's loyalty program, I
can often get a lower price than Sam's if I get enough gas for the
month. Usually between 10 cents to 20 cents cheaper than Sam's Club.

Since I famously do not have anything to do with anything WalMart I don't
hit either of those places. And there is a Circle K right across the road
from the Murphy's nearest my location which matches or beats the Wally
World gas.

There is another program I am a member of for the local Shell stations around here but they are usually rather pricey--sometimes as much as
50 cents higher than other places--so I don't use them.

My area Shell stations are competitive if sometime a penny or two higher
prices than the El-Cheapo brands. We have4 a local chain of C-store/Gas stations called Qwik 'n' EZ that is usually the lowest price (before any discounts) fuel in the area. Buy, the owner, who I know and know to be a
C.M.P. buys "rack" gas from the refineries in Wood River and only gets
the cheapest additive package. His fuel averages 10% to 15% less MPG
than Amoco, Shell, Circle K, Casey's or MotoMart. So, not really a good
deal.

There is a single Weigel's gas station in my area. They have decent prices and offer non-ethanol gas for a slightly highet price.

We have a single ethanol free source. Hy-Vee's premium (high priced) gas
is alcohol-free. Being in the Vintage Iron Riders and messing with orld, carbureted engines that can be/are harmed by ethanol it's good to know
we don't have to go to the local areodrome for Av-gas.

As for groceries, I tend to watch ads online and go to multiple stores
to get what I need. Drives everyone else crazy so I haven't been able
to shop like that since I had a car.

That's my normal way of doing business. I told the story here (more than
once) of the discussion I had with my niece who thinks that Wallyworld

No, wal-mart does not have the best prices. For basic groceries, I like

We used to shop at Lowe's (grocery) when we lived on the other side of town; it was the most convenient and best option for us. Not the low

Lowe's food stores is a sorta=kinda local to you chain being head quartered in Cigaretteville (Winston-Salem). Lowe's Home Improverment
is somewhat more to the west in Mooresville ... and has spread much further than the grocery stores/

We actually found a Lowe's (grocery) out in Tucumcari, NM. They said they'd no affiliation with the chain but we saw several items that had
the house brand name that the store uses so...........

You've mentioned that before. I believe (IIRC) the store owner's name
was Lowe and so long as they didn't try to duplicate the signage ot the logotypes there was bugger-all that Lowe's corporate could do about it.

From their web page: In the late 1940s E.M. "Bud" Lowe started selling
candy and sundries from a single truck in Littlefield, Texas. In 1963,
the Lowe family purchased their first grocery store in Olton, Texas, establishing a business founded on faith, community care, and hard work.

The regional chain is heaqdquartered in Littlefield, TX.

Categories: Seafood, Pasta, Herbs, Sauces, Chilies DD> Yield: 4
Servings

Lots of carbs but it looks good. Personally, I'd use less red pepper
and let diners add more to their own taste.

a half-teaspoon in that much shrimp and pasta is fairly mild. Now, if
it were cayenne .... that would be a different story. A ifferent red pepper:

It's still something I usually go easy on and let people add to taste. Same with black pepper and salt; I know, common condiments but better
off in small quantities.

So if I ever eat at your house I'd better bring my lunch holster. It's
a clip-on to a belt or waist-band leather item with a small shaker of crushed red pepper, a small bottle of Cholula and a small bottle of Trappey's Red Devil.

We have a good selection of spices, including several hot sauces and crushed red pepper. Just have to ask. Cut way down on salt decades ago, black pepper is usually a good guess-tamite shading slightly under the full amount and letting other herbs/spices shine thru.

I pretty much cook to please myself these days. If I were cooking in a commercial kitchen then I'd have to "lowest common denominator" things.

Got this from Hy-Vee - it is high on my list to convert from archives

Looks good but for the cilantro; that's not allowed in the house. (G)

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro but I do use it in some things or they
simply don't taste "right". However, it's very easy to overload and get
that Ivory soap taste/feel. And one tablespoon of fresh is very minimal.
Even chopped.

1/2 Rotisserie chicken; meat
- picked from carcass,
- shredded
1 c Pesto (below)
3 tb Mayonnaise
Salt

MMMMM--------------------------SANDWICH-------------------------------
1 Loaf ciabatta; halved long
- ways
3 oz Baby arugula
8 Oil packed, sun-dried
- tomatoes; thin sliced
1/2 lb Mozzarella; sliced thick

1 cl Garlic
1/4 c Pine nuts; toasted
2 c Fresh basil leaves
1 lg Lemon; juiced
1/4 c Olive oil
1/4 c Grated parmesan
Salt

Make the pesto first:

In a small food processor pulse the garlic and the
pinenuts until finely chopped. Add the basil leaves and
the lemon juice and blend until the basil has begun to
break down. Add the olive oil in a gentle stream, blending
until the mixture is smooth and at your desired
consistency.

Fold in the parmesan and taste for seasoning. Add salt and
extra lemon juice for acidity as needed.

Makes about a cup

Now the sandwiches:

Combine all ingredients for the chicken salad in a bowl.
Taste for seasoning. This can be done one or two days
before.

Preheat a broiler or toaster oven. Brush the ciabatta with
olive oil and toast until golden brown but not hard. Allow
to cool slightly, then place the bottom half of each loaf
on a sheet of plastic wrap. Spread the chicken salad
evenly between the two slices, top with the mozzarella,
sundried tomatoes, and a handful of arugula. Place the
top on the loaf and cut into four even pieces.

Secure the plastic wrap tightly around the loaf, and
then wrap in tin foil. Store in a cooler, or keep
shaded until time to eat.

Makes 4 sandwiches

Looking at t he weekly flyer for your local Ingles I see they have some reasonably decent prices - but definitely not "discount". And they have

Got this from Hy-Vee - it is high on my list to convert from archives

Title: Strip Steak Tacos
Categories: Beef, Bread, Fruits, Chilies, Citrus
Yield: 6 servings

MMMMM--------------------QUICK MANGO SALSA---------------------------
1 c Fresh mango
2 tb Chopped red onions
2 tb Chopped red bell pepper
1 tb Fresh cilantro
1 tb Fresh lime juice
1 tb Fresh jalapeno

Looks good but for the cilantro; that's not allowed in the house. (G)

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro but I do use it in some things or they simply don't taste "right". However, it's very easy to overload and
get that Ivory soap taste/feel. And one tablespoon of fresh is very minimal. Even chopped.

Steve can taste the "soap" in even small amounts so it's best left out
of our cooking. I'll tolerate some, but then reach a point where I
don't want any more. That point seems to be resetting lower, the older
I get.

Gotta cook to suit yourself.
