Well , short version : the person getting the items from Shake Shack did not listen to instructions . We were supposed to have gone together , so after waiting 2 hours , I realised she had already bought them after trying to reach her . This was while I was elsewhere waiting for her as arranged .

Actually, Kraft sold it's Australian business (they also owned Vegemite) to Bega a few years ago. So it's Bega peanut butter now. There was a court case over the branding, which Bega made identical to the old Kraft logo probably because it has such strong brand recognition. Tastes exactly the same.

Man, I love artichoke season. It's so short and those things are so delicious. Anyway, I braised some artichokes in oil and pancetta and a bit of water then served with a spinach and pasta.

how do you deal with the artichoke skins? Do you slice off the sharp parts? I only know one way to eat artichoke - steam, Peel the skin, eat meat off skin, and await the heart :-)

Baby artichoke season is short (which is what I assume you used here) but the biggies seem to be around almost year round.

I used strozzopretti, but casarecce would work equally well.
Nah, they were big suckers. Because artichokes aren't that popular in Australia (or anywhere outside of the med) and because of the biosecurity laws on imported fruit and veg it can be hard to find them out of season. I guess it's just not scalable to grow them in greenhouses here.

THE LAST 45 SUPPER
cheeseburgers on roll-ppang (Costco organic 85 or 88 ground beef) with tillamook medium cheddar or Swiss
French fries (thick oven fries)
Its been awhile since Ive grilled burgers, and I really liked them. Im not sure if its because of the Costco organic meat; chances are strong that this is a factor that Ill not forget.
Zero vegetable aside from burger trimmings (grilled onion & jarred relish)
Ooh what about the meat on the outer peels? Theyre so meaty :-)
