Need to clean out some food items before going out for fresh.

Decided to just make a Beggar's Buffet stew: Potatoes, carrots, onions, peas, leftover hamburger patties cooked last night. Choppity-chop, preboil the roots, throw it all together with some brown gravy mix and some leftover uncooked macaroni and let that slow cook until everything is done and the gravy bubbly. I'd throw in some chopped kale but I'm out.

I do have some crusty bread I can butter and garlic then broil.

Look at that lovely bread. ❤️
 
For the past week or so, the channels I watch on tv have been awash in public service spots insisting that what I need is a mentor.

Who among you wishes to volunteer? I dunno what I need "mented." Does a mentor tell me? How does that work?🤔

ETA: Another thing: Is a mentor like a life coach? Not that it makes a difference, really, because I never understood what a life coach does, either🤔

I guess I was imagining somebody who'd help show you the ropes. How to get two tapioca puddings, win dinner lottery more often and get beef instead of fish sticks, use a weighted sock on a string to whack the high-mounted TV and change channels, which nurses have the softer hands, etc.

I recall on a Seinfeld episode when one of the cast said '' Even mentors will let you down '' .
 
At the last minute I decided to omit the frozen peas (above) since they'll keep for later. Instead I diced up my last tomato before it goes bad and threw that in. I also held back that pasta, since it will keep and can always be used any time.

Excellent choice! Tomato added a hint of tartness that works great with the brown gravy mix I used.

Yabbut, how? What do they do? Or not do?


I dunno. I'm not on TikTok or Instagram or whatever all else there is out there.
