Cajun chicken, hushpuppies, 'fancy shake' (which is not a drink but an attitude).

I was really wanting comfort food today. This won't win any awards but it turned out great and was a real crowd (and kid) pleaser.

I used one can of cream of mushroom in lieu of one of the cans of cream of chicken, and you can really customize additional ingredients. When you first pour the broth in it looks like too much, but the egg noodles soak it up in the end for a nice consistency.

Easy to make and easy leftovers.

We make these sandwiches at casa de Mac. They're not really primantis, but close.

Hor sausage patties with provolone, mayo based slaw, on Italian bread. Sooo good

Had a couple breasts in the freezer so I added that alongside the thighs.

In “Lies people tell themselves to make life more bearable” news...we don’t have to pretend LaCroix isn’t eurotrash swill anymore. Go find Spindrift soda. It has 1-2g of sugar from actual juice and no other cryptic “naturally essenced” ingredients. It’s not exactly San Pellegrino, but it’s totally decent.

Spindrift is good stuff. We just buy wegman's seltzer for our everyday stuff, but when stopping on road trips, we get spindrift.

After seeing how much you spend on suits, this isn't surprising ;)

Do yinz have Lidl where you live? Other than Gaucho, that is. ;)

I finally got to our store, and it's like an Aldi on steroids. Cool Euro bakery area though.

And they had flavored seltzer for $0.25 a liter, and it tastes every bit as good as the Trader Joe's I normally get for $0.69 per liter.

$26 for 24 online.

I know I’m tossing money around in NHR like it’s nobody’s business. But this seems manageable.

I mean...you can go to the dollar store and get like a thousand emoji stickers for a buck. These are 3 separate use cases.

Fruity carbonated drinks are your comparables. Not just water + gas.

...or is the Kirkland stuff like a la croix knock off?

la croix knock off yes.

the spindrift are better but not enough to justify the added cost for less volume. that is just this educated consumers opinion

Fair enough. I mean...one has “juice”. The other is “naturally essenced”. Which probably means they pick up stray orange peels from soccer games and put throw them in a solvent.

They probably just put the fruit peels in a giant rotovap, keep the ones that give you the actual flavor and mix them in with the carbonated water. There's probably not a huge difference between natural and artificial flavoring... one is just made by chemical reactions in a plant, the other is made by chemical reactions in a lab. Molecularly speaking, they're probably identical.
