Charles Shaw is now three-buck chuck here in Portland, but it's still easily the cheapest vin ordinaire going.

One of the 99 Cents Only stores here carries wine, but it's $2.99. They had a Goliath white, which I think I've seen elsewhere for closer to $8-10.

The steak and ale and chicken balti pies were taken off the shelves at the same time when the frozen veg recall happened - however I went to tj's last week and the steak and ale pie is back. I actually emailed them about the chicken balti pies and never heard back, I really really want them back :(

Made the rustic apple tart tonight, and bought a chocolate spice coconut bar. Will report.
I've noted it before, but I love the paella.

Currently I am liking:
TamalesGyozaPizza dough - a staple (though I slightly prefer my own, it takes too long)Chicken sausageDried pitted Montmorency cherriesDark chocolate-covered cherriesPinachio cookiesCaramel cashew cookiesRoasted/salted almonds
Winewise, they have a couple different Primitivos that I have bought and am looking forward to trying.

i have used their pizza dough much but it's so bland no matter what you do to it :-/

this was mostly a fill-up run (i like to go to tj's after therapy because it's soothing and this week i was rewarded with 'a view to a kill' on the stereo when i got there); also i gave up chocolate for lent. i bought a bottle of wine, the fresh mozz cheese sticks, a new york strip, the heat and eat brussels, "handsome cut" french fries, haricots verts, blueberries, honey roasted peanuts, cheese crisps that are all cheese, hash browns (my favorite thing!!!), strawberry preserves, tahini, and chickpeas. also two clutches of red roses, which i combine in my mason jar vase.
― maura, Friday, 10 March 2017 21:40 (seven years ago) link
i figured out how to make those hash browns so they're exactly like mcdonald's. it is the best

Really dig the European style yogurt, esp with the small frozen blueberries mixed in.

I mix either spinach or the "cruciferous crunch" bagged blend into anything I deem vegetable-deficient.
