Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

I'm considering these...

Cheesecake in Graham
Clotted Cream
Banana Cream
Honeycomb, Crumble Type
Lemon Wafer, Cream Type

None of the others interest me.

Not sure what the Bakewell is supposed to be (so that one is a maybe). The photo has what looks like a crust with a chocolate cake inside and then almonds on top. IRL I would eat a piece if it was in front of me.

No banana or lemon for me. Thought I was good with lite lemon and it worked….for awhile

 

[FranC]

The honeycomb is probably pretty sweet. The other two are ok

 

[ShowMeTwice]

No clue. Put it in a recent mix. Steeping. Probably iffy if the sweetest of the three.

You might like it. It is a good whipped cream. Please don't let my ratings of the three influence you when you try it.

I will help you with Hypnosis Therapy. Close your eyez and say:

I ferget all about FA WC... I ferget all about FA WC... I ferget all about FC WC...

Then count to 99,999,993.5 and you will have forgotten all about it!

Don't forget to open your eyes.

I find your description of cream and vanillas to be pretty close to my tastes.

@ShowMeTwice Another question. Which cap flavors are of interest to you.

I have three of those, no interest in pineapple, frosting no doubt too sweet. Added the other two.

Hey @ShowMeTwice - you’re having what we had for dinner last night, only our veggies were roasted. Enjoy!

Feel free to hop into that truck of yours and start driving. Our forecast got bumped up to 24”, possible hurricane winds and power outages. Should be fun here, you don’t want to miss it. It's been a while since we've had a storm like this. The old prepare routines are kicking in.

@FranC FWIW, I like SSA Whipped Cream and don't find it to be sweet. I don't have FA, don't ask me why I never picked it up as I like a lot of FA flavors. SSA replaced an old bottle of TFA whipped cream.

I got in a short workout and got the strawberry macaroon and three other sft mixed. Now to wait.

Good to hear you don’t think the whipped is sweet either.

 

[FranC]

It will be nice to have a low sweet whipped. I can mix with it more.

custard cake
Wafer crunch
Shortbread

Doesn't everyone have the option to order groceries online and pick up at store if you don't have delivery?

I haven't shopped for groceries in over a year and I don't miss it.

I never have but I’m tempted. I would prefer to pick out my own meats though.

When the pandemic started and I was buying for us and my parents I made my son go with me. I’m now spoiled. I had to go to Walmart by myself after work. At the self checkout all the bags were stuck. I had to separate each one to open them. Slowed me down big time and I had a lot of stuff. When he is with me we can bag and checkout in record time. He scans and I bag. We are a great team. We fly through it.

custard cake
Wafer crunch
Shortbread

I mixed two of those and have a mix for the wafer.

I did watch Battleship. Pretty good.

I got my bcf order today. They gave me 30 mls of FA Monsoon (dark spicy tobacco) for free and a sticker. That’s a big freebie! My smell is coming back but not my taste so I guess I’ll try these in a few days.

You must be in a remote area. I have lived in small towns with at least a wally and couple other grocery stores.

Easternmost town in the US of A. Pop. 1,237. Next nearest grocery store is a forty-minute drive away.

There is now a dollar store in town, which has some groceries as well, but the inventory is more along the lines of a convenience store's. I have zero doubt that it does not deliver, either.

It makes no difference to me. I get most of my food from a couple of buying co-ops and it is delivered to my door. My milk (from a local farm) is dropped off weekly by a charitable neighbor. When I need celery (about the only thing I can only buy at the grocery store), my sister picks it up for me. And twice a year, when I get my teeth cleaned, I grocery shop in person.

I've got it made.
