UPDATE FROM Fountain.fm
Doggonit Girl - A True Cook With What You Have Moment
I listened to this twice. Love the format. I made a version of the tomato soup. Thank you for reminding me that the garden is so tasty. I found the solution to too much trombocino. I just had a baby Muscovy deficiency. They are like a school of pirahna on the seed ball end. I quarter it. They get two quarters twice a day. I have very little rind left. Grated trombocino and the tomato soup, with an immersion blender makes quite the hearty soup. Too much habanero! Bring out the sour cream.

Weekly Shopping Report From Joe
We went into Dollar Tree for the first time in quite a while this Friday. The food coolers were decently stocked. I didn't see any big changes.

Home Depot price online of a 2x4x8 is still $3.48.

Aldi. I've seen a few new faces in there, both stocking shelves and at the registers. Staple prices were: bread (20 oz. white): 1.35 (+); eggs: $2.46 (-); whole milk: $2.86 (-); heavy cream: $5.39; OJ: $3.45; butter: $3.79 (+); bacon: $3.99; potatoes: $4.49; sugar: $2.99; flour: $2.35; and 80% lean ground beef: $3.79.

Rural King. Sonia thought there were a number of empty shelves around, primarily in the livestock area.

A gallon of untainted regular gasoline remains at $3.599.

Operation Independence
Another Hipcamper is coming through, $25 in the hopper
