I've been shopping more than I've been eating

 I went to Pennsylvania for over a week, which disrupted my habits. I only spent about 20 minutes in a Giant Eagle during that whole trip, so there isn't much to say about it. I did come back with a lot of frozen banana peppers my brother grew and some Tabascos my mother grew.

When I got back, I noticed Bravo renovated its entrance. I haven't bought anything there yet.

I got flour and onions at Brooklyn Harvest Market. Mushrooms and sweet potatoes at Key Food. I did eat the mushrooms (with a lot of polenta and some asparagus I found on sale at Mr. Piña.)

On Monday, I got my Covid booster then walked to Western Beef where I got a 2 pound jar of giardiniera and a 5 lb bag of carrots. I refrained from buying another 6 lb can of tomatoes.

Tuesday (yesterday), I went to Food Bazaar and got a pound of frozen squid ($5), 4 cans of coconut milk ($3), a frozen spinach and frozen peppers & onions (each $2.5 for 2 lbs).

Last night I cooked some of the peppers and onions and made bulgur wheat I've had for a while. I didn't realize how long I have had it but the bag said to use by 2018. Well, I used it.

Coming up, I need to eat a lot of pasta and my various rices and some cheese. Plus those carrots.

I don't have anyone to cook for anymore so I don't know what to make.

I returned to Western Beef because it was over 80 degrees in March and I wanted to bike somewhere

I figured I'd get milk and giardiniera and whatever else I found. But the milk was $1.59 for a pint and I thought it should be $1.39 so I didn't get it. (Later I went to Ozzie's and paid $1.49). The giardiniera was on sale for $2 for a 32 oz jar. I got brown mustard for $1. Broccoli rabe was $1.99/lb and I will always buy it when it is that price.  Tuna was $0.80/can (I got 2).

I might as well write about my trip to Ozzie's later. I got that milk. Chick peas were $0.99/bag so I got 3 and am going to make hummus shortly. I got 32 oz of Chobani Greek yogurt. Fage is much better, but it was $3 for 17 oz so I got the cheaper one I like less which will last me too long since I like it less. I keep doing this. I got a bottle of Gatorade for $1 because I need to fight hangovers.
