Me too...that would be an all day project!

Our latest papaya did not do well & the squirrels got to our batch of grapes before we did , often the chikus ( sapodilla ) too , quite usual with our fruit trees even with “ protective “ measures . They are not keen on our lemons though including the kalamansi . They enjoyed all the mandarin oranges !! We bought a plant for the first time to experiment .
We should have left our coconut tree a bit longer too as was not really tall plus the young ones are not growing fast enough to fruit !
Given up on our mangoes , fingers crossed for the custard apple , duku langsat , soursop , starfruit ..

We were , still are , rather hopeful , we do try to be green ..

salami & arugula sandwiches & kettle dill pickle chips
zero hangover

Gorgeous - is that fiestaware?
is there tomato sauce, or is all the red from the bell pepper?

Mmm, dill pickle chips are my favorite Kettle Brand flavor aside from the sea salt ridged ones in the big Costco bag.

The spaghetti recipe calls for two 24 oz jars of sauce, but I used one jar of sauce + a can of fire roasted tomatoes and a teeny bit of extra water. And yes, my bowl is Fiesta, this one. https://www.macys.com/shop/product/f...id=pdp_details

so fun about fiesta.
I prefer kettle jalapeño and bbq flavors the most - I still buy most of their skus when Safeway has a sale. Actually I mostly only buy their products on sale because I keep very high inventory for Kettle at home. We have many open bags with chip clips plus 5-6 bags that aren’t yet open.
open flavors in my preferred sequence - jalapeño, backyard bbq, salt & vinegar, dill pickle, sea salt, ranch

Salami sandwich is the comfort food of lunches (or luncheons). I love them.

Salt & Vinegar is far and away my favorite. I don't think I've seen ranch, but admittedly I don't look past S&V. I tried dill pickle once, but can't remember if it was Kettle or another brand. Thought I'd love it, but the flavor wasn't strong enough for me. But now I'm wondering, is there any such thing as a "bad" potato chip, or are some just better than others?

Kettle brand salt and fresh ground pepper is my go to chip.

Salami is definitely very fun.

I’m less into the kettle cheddar and honey Dijon and sour cream & onion and korean chips, but I know they’re beloved. The Himalayan sea salt and mango salsa (?) kettle chips are also less fun for me. I don’t like these flavors in general for chips - Asian barbecue is great for Asian food and less fun for chips, maybe because I prefer USA bbq for chips. Maybe my child will enjoy more chip flavors since there’s such a huge variety now compared to when I was a child.

Regular and BBQ are the only kinds I remember as a kid. Clover Club brand at school, I think.

BBQ were always one of my favorites. There was a local brand called Poore Brothers which was one of the first kettle style I tried. Really good. The Kettle Jalapeño are quite good.

Not much in the way of good potato chips in Indonesia. Lay’s, Cheetos and Fritos are going to be stopped being made in August because of some product merger. Maybe Frito-Lay? That main leaves Pringles and Mr Potato as the leading brands of “potato” snacks.

Usa bbq chips have always had a paprika style spice, so I associate bbq chips as being a bit spicy. Nothing like jalapeño, but still a little spice. Asian bbq has no spice element that I can notice. Kettle Korean bbq feels too sweet and I don’t want to buy it.

sadly I never saw Poore bros in sf - at least now it’s easier to see a big range of chips even if I’m mostly eating kettle brand.

Hard to find good (IMO) potato chips in much of Asia. Also in many parts of South America. Even if you find Lays or similar, they will be very different.

Midnight snack. Nice, warm cranberry orange scone fresh out of the toaster oven. 😋

*Commercial scone because I’m terrible at baking.
