And I love that bistro set and it's just the type of thing (and price) I am hoping to find before the end of the season.<br /><br />We did a chicken last night -- it fed four of us (including three hungry grown working men) and Tommy and I are eating the rest tonight. I pulled apart the chicken and mixed it with potatoes and veggies -- tossed in spicy guacamole. I can get a whole chicken for $1.09 a pound. I made stock over night too!Alex Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15562233895276078957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-34536900029201529482014-08-10T11:45:54.954-07:002014-08-10T11:45:54.954-07:00They had Halloween stuff in the store I was in the...They had Halloween stuff in the store I was in the other day....first week of August!
