It's suck a brilliant idea. The one from the grocery store was super easy and I had cleaned it all up while it cooked. Perfect for working families or people who want to make a nice meal for someone but isn't a confident cook.2

Yeah it wasn’t fun to drive in last night. Could only go about 40 tops on the intestate. Took me over an hour to get home last night.🤣
In Georgia, if the weather forecasters even mention the S word, there's no milk or toilet paper in the groceries.2 -

Almost time to head home and get under a blanket and watch some scary movies6

oooh what movies? I'm looking for ideas for this weekend
I want to do haunting of hill house and the bly manor one, but not sure what else is out there. We binged on Lore last weekend and that was weird and creepy. 0 -

Speaking of that, I'm still pondering @Diatonic12 's comment, about it being homey and pleasant here. That's probably being we're all boring old farts here, being middle aged and all that.
My daughter nearly baked me a carrot cake (assignment in school, but it was optional), however when she realised there's actual carrot in carrot cake, she bailed.
Sensible girl. Don't waste your pudding on veg!

@AliNouveau - that sounds delicious. I don't think anyone around here offers meal kits. Are they like those mail order-all the ingredients and directions included you do the cooking meals?
@cgrout78 - good homemade mac and cheese is definitely one of those comfort foods that I'll splurge on!
@forestfreek - I'm glad I found this group for the same reasons you mentioned. Kinda prefer to keep my fitness and Tinder goals separate 😂 (JK!)
So this kit comes with steaks or ribs, I chose steaks. It's for two people so you get two twice baked potatoes which you just reheat in the oven, asparagus, bread, salad and cheesecake. I added another dessert that is their classic signature dessert and a bottle of wine. We always figure these restaurants are trying to might as well bulk up the bill. They give you step by step directions for everything. They even give a little container of oil and salt and pepper, a container of steak spice and salad dressing. I'll post a pic when I get it tomorrow. I really enjoy cooking but these kits are kind of fun. I got a grocery store one the other day
Steak seems risky as it's easy to f*&k up if you're not a confident cook though and then you've probably spent quite a bit! I'm a vegetarian but I occasionally make them for my husband and I spend the entire time staring at it willing it to not overcook 0 -

I live in the UK. It literally snows every year and every year people look into the sky in confusion and then the trains stop working. Every year. Every damn year.
We had to get salt/grit airlifted in from other better prepared countries in the past.2 -
And it's teeny tiny barely there snow btw. And still.1

Copy. Copy that.

Hahah get a meet thermometer. It'll make it perfect every time. I used my meet thermometer more for testing the doneness of bread though. Hmmmm2
