Basic turkey sandwiches for dinner, just bread, lunch meat, swiss, onion, shreddice, mayo and mustard, salt and pep.

Normally I'd have sliced tomato on it, but I'm trying to give tomats a break for a bit. Recently had pizza kick my ass with heartburn so I want to apologize to mister stomach.

Honestly, the simple things in life are often the best. Working in the deli only really changed up my sandwich layer choices, and that's about fighting the soggy.

Weird question, but do you have a mandoline you'd recommend? All the ones I look at are that flimsy plastic poo with a razor molded in, and I don't want to risk my hands on one of those pieces of poo.

Looking for a personal rec instead of something off amazon.

I assume it was a sci fi book?  I tried googling but not successfully, but I did find this search that might be useful for you:

If it comes to that, Trader Joes has a reasonably good selection with reasonable prices.  I used Instacart once.  They got me two pears as big as my head.  So I wouldn't advise using them for produce, but standardized, off the shelf items are probably ok.  If you haven't used them before they do have some introductory discounts, but they charge you for their services.  I'm pretty sure TJs doesn't deliver.

I'm having the usual cream scones with new citrus marmalades.  They both turned out well.

Dont you just hate when you have this book you have read a while ago and want to re read BUT cannot remember its titile :-\ :-\

Believe a Russian author, detective goes into looking for murderers but he has to "plug/drug" himself to go into a mental/mind world to catch the killers.
I suppose a matrix/mnemonic style film but definitely older than either
Someone recommended on the Dem.  ??? ??? ???

ah, the shortages I run into are strange and nebulous. For instance, the only tomato juice I've been able to find lately is from the state, and it is some truly vile stuff.

I got some very nice horseradish and had one of the most watery bloody mary's I've ever had.

The lack of decent cheese selection has me reconsidering grocery delivery.
