I used to stock up like that sometimes when I lived in CA, but I've never
seen any chicken that cheap anywhere I lived. Here, I can't stock up on
frozen stuff. I have a side by side and the freezer doesn't hold much.
Angela has a tiny freezer on her fridge, but I use that with stuff
specifically for her, like gluten free bread.

I was given a George Foreman Grill as a gift when they first came out.
Hated the thing and threw it out. Maybe they've made changes in them since
then. But the one I had cooked the meat very slowly. I could cook it far
faster in a pan. And it was a royal pain to clean!

I got a gift certificate for a store where I don't usually shop. Couldn't
really find anything I needed or wanted, so I got a big huge, deep skillet,
sauté pan with a lid on it. Works great for cooking meat in a hurry but I
have to make sure not to walk off and leave it. I've burned the pork chops
the last two times I made them. But when I cook chicken, I usually cook it
in some broth.
