Subj : Grocery Getters To : Sean Dennis From : Ruth Haffly Date : Mon Jan 27 2025 14:00:37 Hi Sean, SD> A few years ago, I bought a hat for my dad that has "Don't Forget My SD> Senior Discount!" embroidered on it from Groupon. I remember 20 years SD> ago when he turned 55 and he bragged about being able to get senior SD> discounts. XD AARP membership eligability starts at age 50. Gets you a bunch of discounts that probably most members don't even realise they have. In fall of 2023, the fall RV Radio Net rally was held in Fredricksburg, TX. It was settled initially by German immigrants, including the Nimitz family. After WWII, the town wanted to build a museum, honoring Chester Nimitz, one of the key admirals of the Pacific theater. He persuaded the town to change it to a WWII in the Pacific theater museum. We toured some of it--took several hours, a full tour would have probably taken a full day. In the gift shop, Steve found (and bought) a hat that reads "Retired, not Expired". It has gotten him a lot of chuckles--and probably a number of discounts that people now realise he's entitiled to. RH> Those slices are filling! The Legion Executive Committee meets at 6pm; RH> usually somebody buys pizza so they can have supper while they work. RH> Most often it's Sam's Club pizza; Steve has brought left overs home RH> from time to time. It's ok but not the best pizza in town. SD> It's not the best but boy, I've had much worse pizza. I like my local SD> Little Caesar's pizza, much to some of my friends' disgust, but dear SD> God, the price of pizza for delivery from Domino's, Pizza Hut, or Papa SD> John's (especially Papa John's) is horrible. I hope 2025 is the year SD> of the car for me. The best pizza we've had is our home made. I start with a whole wheat crust, sometimes home made sauce, sometimes tomato sauce with herbs and spices added. On top of that can go onions, mushrooms, bell peppers (prefera bly red), and pepperoni, optional black olives, then mozzerella or provelone cheese. Not all toppings, all the time, but that's an ideal pizza. Baking is either in the oven or on a grill, then Steve adds red pepper to his portion. Haven't had any boughten one that comes anything close to this. Are you looking for any particular make/model of car? We liked our 2009 Ford Escape but it didn't have much towing power, so bought the 2016 model which was the one we had when we had the accident in WY. Needed something to get us and the camer home so got a 2010 Nissan Frontier. That was good, but lacked the towing "oomp" needed for the new camper so now we have a 2018 Ford F-150. RH> Great news! I presume you mean January 28 as the 26h is Sunday. (G) SD> Yes, I meant the 28th. RH> There will be a learning curve but if you can get used to them without RH> much of a problem, you will enjoy eating again. Just don't expect to be RH> able to enjoy a steak with corn on the cob as a side and an apple for RH> dessert right after you get them. (G) SD> No. My mom has told me that also and I probably will stick to SD> well-prepared meals until I can get the hang of eating with dentures. SD> Like I said to Dave, that's why I love the Instant Pot for what it can SD> do to meats. RH> That does look good; I've never tried cooking portabellos, just their RH> "baby" cousin, creminis. SD> They are absolutely delicious qwith a very meaty taste and pleasently SD> chewy when made right. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..................... SD> Continuing on with the theme for this packet... SD> Title: Crisp German Meatballs SD> Categories: Pork, Appetizers, German SD> Yield: 1 Servings Something to consider next time we make a major meat buying run. Right now we're working on using meats from the freezer. --- Catch you later, Ruth rchaffly{at}earthlink{dot}net FIDO 1:396/45.28 .... OH NO!
