See post 103. I was able to download as a PDF file to Mrs. Pete’s Recipe folder. “Great, What Am I doing to do with that! Cooking for 100 servings?”

I’m in a constant battle against business trends already just trying to cook big/cheap(though not for 100).

I had to drive an extra 8 miles to get whole carrots because the closer grocery store only carries trimmed, peeled baby carrots. I did quite a bit of shopping at that other store and will continue to do so since it’s on my way home from work.

I did stop by the closer store but only bought two items and spent $20. Normally I would spend about $100. Oh well. That’s what they get for going with postmodernism.

As food prices continues to climb, more people will learn to make soups and stews and learn other methods to stretch things. Then they’ll start a garden and get some laying hens and maybe start raising their own meat. If fedgov makes modern fertilizers unaffordable, people will use manure.

I doubt I’m the only one doing these sort of things.

It’s about time to start the ham stock for that soup. I’ll be buying more hams because they go a long way. Come Spring, I’ll be running the smoker most every weekend. Boston butts and whole chickens and some sort of stew or beans in the vertical chamber. The occasional ribs and salmon.
