I slept OK last night but I woke up with a bad headache. Ron was also making a lot of noise, but it was 7 am, not that far till my alarm, so I just went ahead and got up. I got on the computer for a while, watched some TV, and
Ah! Walmart just emailed me! No Diet Dew! [cries]
Just got the delivery and everything was OK except for no Dew. Same guy I had before, I like him, he is very nice.
Great delivery. Until he drove off and I realized his top was still in my pocket! I feel like a total shit. Of course Walmart sends an email every time asking if I want to tip. I tried to do that but it didn't work. I went to the Walmart grocery website and it asked if I wanted to tip, I did it there. I normally prefer to do an off the books tip but in a pinch I will put it on paper.
I've had a pretty ferocious headache all day but it isn't incapacitating. I put away all the food. Again, perfect bananas and tomatoes. Again, great sell by dates (plenty of time to cook) the meat. I got lots of cheese. I thought I was buying the small package of cheese sticks but I got the 36 count. That will keep me busy for a while!
I took the chicken out to thaw - I put it in a gallon ziplock, in the fridge, to thaw. I will put it in the crock pot tomorrow with the tomato sauce and spices. It should be pretty good.
I will pull the skin off because chicken skin in a crock pot is just nasty. I think I will pan fry the skin with a little seasoning and make cracklings. No sense in wasting it and I love fried/baked chicken skin.
I got three thighs, I think that will be plenty. I am OK with them having bones because it's just one bone each, easily pulled out (especially after slow cooking), and the bones add more flavor.
I am curious to see how it turns out - that is a question mark: will it be good?
Now, for a "sure thing" I bought a big jar of taco seasoning. You use it with ground beef. I think that is a sure thing and will be very good. Then I have the pork sausage. I can cook that in tomato sauce and serve it over carbs or by itself. I have done that many time.
The only bad thing being they didn't have the Mountain Dew, but I will live. We will have to go to Walmart pretty soon to get Ron's medication anyway, so I can do it then. I still have "plenty".
So a good grocery run and only a few minutes long! Maybe 10 minutes on the computer and 5 minutes putting it away, a nice smiling face to bring it and help me put it in the garage, a good experience. Oh, and this delivery was free because I used the code "Delivery". Even better.
It's about time for me to eat so I'm going to go do that. I'll post again later.
