Default Stock-Up Grocery Trip

I had to take my cat to the vet last Friday. After dropping her off I
went to Publix and did a substantial stock-up, mostly for the freezer.

I finally found lamb shanks! I also bought some ground lamb. I'll
either use that for Shepherd's pie or maybe "lamburgers" I bought a
flank steak, two pork tenderloins, beef short ribs, chuck-eye steaks,
thinly sliced veal (for veal scallopini), some chicken thighs. Oh, and
Gaspar's Portugese linguica sausage. Gaspar's is a company located in
Massachusetts. I was surprised to find it on the shelf this far south.

I also bought Canadian bacon. Gosh, I haven't had that since I was
about 6 years old! Mom used to buy it sometimes as a splurge when she
made Sunday breakfasts when we lived in Lakehurst, NJ (1965-66). I
bought some English muffins with a mind towards making my own breakfast
sandwiches to take to work. Toasted English muffin, Canadian bacon
topped with a slice of cheddar cheese. Sans egg, let's call it the
McBiddy breakfast sandwich.
