^^^ this.

So sweet. BabyB calls my parents Nina and Poppi. We do not know where Nina came from, but that's what he calls Mom. Love it.

BabyB LOVES just about everything on Nick Jr. And lately, Paw Patrol. I'm.so.sick.of.paw.patrol. Sick. I have been sick all week and mrB had meetings and didnt get home until late. It's the only way I could get his to just sit. Lol There are only 4 on OnDemand. Anyway, we do it all the time, too.

Tonight? Wine.

Theraflu and one bite of BabyB's leftover spaghetti.

When a company calls me and asks any personal questions, my response is always. "You called me. You should already have that info. If you need it verified ill happily call back via the number on my bill/statement". 100% of the time, legitimate companies say they understand, and will either allow me to call back or will just skip that verification all together and get to the point. There have been times when I've taken the caller confused and was hung up on. Turns out it was a scam. Never, ever give personal info out freely.

Yes. It says "Free Range". It's Kroger's new Simple Truth Organic brand. But it says Free Range and has the certified stamp on it.

It's not $4/lb. more like $2.89/lb. .10 or more less than what you'd pay per lb for a pack of regular breasts. I don't normally buy free range from Kroger. But I have a hard time believing that Kroger would go along with slapping their label on a free range bird that reat wasn't free range.

It's Perdue. They claim to have free range. P1318 is Perdue in DE, where the company is incorporated. Can you tell where the actual bird actually came from?

It's p-1318, I think. By the label you mentioned, it says"Plant No. On Bag Closure". The actual sticker label says P-1318, as does the closure. (I didn't see the one the first time I looked).

Actually it says plant number is in the closure. The metal band at the top is stamped "P" on the top, and "318" on the bottom.

I have a whole bird defrosting in the fridge now. Where is the plant number? That's how it was with my mom and her family, too.

I do not buy anything labeled as "cage free". It is misleading. I have been buying eggs from with Bray Farms or Vineyard Farms. But just before Christmas the birds stopped laying. I have yet to check back with Bray because of the holidays and now weather. But the way I understood it, chicken cannot be labeled as organic if it was not fed organic feed. At Kroger, the free range stuff isn't with the other chicken. It's in the cooler case against the wall, nearest to the "butcher", where the lobsters are. NOT the "natural" stuff - I don't buy "natural", either.

I agree! I hate it for those guys! And I understand what you mean about staying up. I dozed back off, but woke up off and on. Then the power came back on and tnhe alarm beeped, freaking me out. I was convinced a door had been opened before I realized it was the power. Me thinks ill be taking a nap with BabyB today.

I am not far from you, but we lost ours, too. It didnt come back on until about 4:30. I am so tired. When it's this cold out, it doesn't take long for a house to get COLD. Then when it did come on it rattled a vent in my room until MrB finally fixed it at 5:10am. I.want.sleep. And summer.

They are Kroger's new Simple Truth Organic Free Range bird. Like I said, they don't always have them. Ingles does, though, petty regularly. I think they have Harvest ........ Something. I can't remember... There is another brand they have, too, I think migh be the brand you mentioned. This. They are leaner, have better flavor, and (IMO, and MrB's) they have a better texture. I stopped buying regular chicken when I came home with a 4.3lb pack of breasts and there were only three in it when I opened it. It grossed me out and that was the end.

I've always wondered if that place was good. Is it? And I've never heard if candied jalapeños...

I got it at Kroger, I forgot how much per pound, but I had 5 thighs for about $6.70 something. Getting it at Kroger is touch and go; I usually have better luck at Ingles but got lucky this morning. I normally do not buy chicken "parts" anymore, but I buy a whole free range bird. I usually pay $11-$13 for it. Unless its marked down then I can get it for $8-$10.

Homemade chicken and dumplings from the Wheat Belly website. It was surprisingly delicious. The dumplings were ground flaxseed, almond meal, butter, baking powder, egg whites. I browned free range chicken thighs in a little butter in my cast iron Dutch oven, removed them, then sautéed onions, carrots, celery until soft. Added chicken broth, chicken, thyme and then baked in the oven. Then added the dumplings in top and baked a little longer. Nom nom nom

Lol DGITW it'll be over soon.

Sorry y'all, but this looks like East Pauldings' exit.

You, my friend, are a fool. I mean, really. Summer is the best time of year. BEST. Sun on your skin, sweat on your brow, cold beer/water/tea in your hand sweating just as badly as you are. Sunscreen nearby, less than an arm's length away. Kids splashing in the pool, and you're so glad just a bit if that cold pool water splashed you, even though you pretend to be mad your sweaty hair is wet.... You're an IDIOT.

If you watch the video, you'll see that these folks didnt have neighbors for miles. I call BS on the CA government here. Also, Stradial is not a troll. I hope you got a bullet for your hateful post.

I don't know yet. Probably roasted carrots and pork chops and a salad. You're more than welcome to come over! LOL

I cooked my fist meal since before Christmas (except Christmas Dinner) on Thursday, and haven't cooked again since I shall resume cooking tonight.
