chicken tortilla soup for us tonight. I caught a 98 cent a pound deal
for chicken thighs yesterday. I picked all my peppers (hot and not
hot- a half bushel +) yesterday and processed those today for the
freezer. I also have almost a bushel of tomatoes that need something
done to them. There's the base for chicken tortilla soup.

I love soup but I've never made chicken tortilla soup. I really should
try it sometime. Enjoy!

whole chickens are always 98 cents a pound here. Chicken parts run a
dollar to two dollars more per pound. I don't get whole chickens
anymore.

Maybe you don't buy tortured industry chickens like Janet US and

I always buy a bunch of them when I get them at that price. Chicken
thighs can be used for so many dishes. I also buy chicken breasts
when they are on sale for .$99. I don't know why chicken is expensive
near you. That's a big industry in the Carolinas.

If you buy crap ingredients like that, who cares how you cook it? Go

Quick Swiss Chard Supper over mashed potatoes. Roasted green beans on the
side.

An easy weeknight supper of grilled skinless boneless chicken breast
topped with barbecue sauce. I ate mine in sandwich form between two
slices of multigrain bread. Coleslaw on the side.

We were going to have meat loaf but I realized there was half a jar of
passada, so I made a pasta sauce with it and used the ground meat for
meatballs.... spaghetti and meat balls.

Depends on the size chicken, roasters generally cost more than
fryers.... actually 99¢ is high here for roasters, during warmer
months the price drops to 79¢... people tend to not do much oven
roasting during summer months.

>Chicken parts run a dollar to two dollars more per pound.

I never buy chicken parts, they are not parts of the same chicken...
the diseased portions are used as cheapo pet food and fertilizer.
I prefer to cut up chickens myself, I do a cleaner job, I cut away
excess fat and innards... I like to pull out the rib bones, grab with
a paper towel. I usually cut a roaster into eighths and pan bake
those parts... takes me under ten minutes to disjoint.

There are two here and we have different tastes, she won't eat dark
meat, whole roasters work out perfect for us, plus the cats get
some... a 7 lb roaster makes 2-3 meals... the bones & left overs make
a good soup. I enjoy picking the bones, she won't.

now there is an opportunity for Sheldon to see diseased chicken and

Just me but I definitely would have picked meat loaf. I've been
craving it but naturally none on sale this week. Hopefully next
week. oh well.

It's another typo. It should be passata.... uncooked tomato puree.

If it's in a jar, do you buy it refrigerated? Otherwise, it's at
least minimally heated.

It comes in a jar, so it has to have been processed with heat. It makes
a great base for a pasta sauce. I usually saute some finely chopped
onion, garlic and red pepper, toss in some dried chili, oregano and
basil, a slosh of wine and simmer it for a while.

It can't be called selfish when you live alone, it's only selfish if you
indulge yourself at the expense of others that live with you. I imagine
Sheldon's wife is an expert on the subject of living with a selfish mate.

So she could back him up with his crude comments but I'm sure she's a

You could be right, I have often wondered if he acts that way at home, I
can't believe anyone would put up with it on a daily basis. Here, one has
the option of marking his crude posts as read, but maybe he knows that she
would take a spatula to his head if he acted that way at home, at least one
would hope.

They could have been quite a team otherwise

Maybe. But she has to know about her walking sphincter.

Can you imagine how ashamed and embarrassed she must be with that
walking bag of shit she's married to?

I bet she feels small enough to crawl under a pebble.

Lately, I get the impression that Sheldon's losing a fanboi.

That's one of my favorites. You might find me at your door if I lived
closer, but Texas is a rather long trip!

I hope your weather is cooperating and not causing any damage for you.

That's the definition of a selfish lifestyle.

>and that includes meals.

I do ALL the cooking, however we discuss meals and I'm more than
willing to prepare her choices... and we both have the same tastes in
food... only accomodation I make is to not cook with onion, however
there are plenty of times that she's off doing something so eats
elsewhere so then I can eat all the onions I like... she golfs so at
least once a week she eats dinner at the course, unless they are
serving something she doesn't like... she doesn't care for how they
cook chicken, it's not cooked done enough, can 't blame her, I won't
eat chicken not fully cooked either.

>No fussing over what to watch on the TV either

We have four TVs, and more than half the time we watch different
shows.... it's difficult for me to believe that people argue over what
to watch on TV. Nowadays TVs cost so little that I can't imagine only
one TV in a household.

>nor quarrels about money.

We never argue about finances, we each have our own income. We
maintain a Household Account and each month contribute equally. Our
personal expenses are our own, she pays for her haircut, I pay for
mine. She maintains her vehical, I maintain mine. When there are
extra household bills we add extra to the household account...
yesterday we had new rain gutters installed, we each contributed half
the cost.

At our age we don't have time or energy to argue. There's no dictator
here.

A married couple with separate bank accounts always strikes me as a
union of two misers. Or at least one.

selfish: lacking consideration for others; concerned chiefly with one's own personal profit or pleasure.

I don't really see how a single person's lifestyle is selfish.

We have one TV for the two of us. If he's watching something
I'm not interested in, I read a book on my tablet, or go into the
den and use my PC to surf the Internet or something. He's much
more interested in television than I am.

Yoose couldn't be more wrong... we're both very respectful of each
other and generous to each other. Both being equally frugal our only
enigma is how to spend our extra money... it supports our cats and we
donate to needy animals.
