What produce/ingredients did you buy or obtain today (2025)?

Ah thanks, thats nice of you. What is ‘all purpose seasoning’?
All purpose seasoning mix is great to use on meat and vegetables. I use it on just about everything savory.
I make my own blend. But you can buy All purpose seasoning in the grocery store or probably Amazon. Goya Adobo seasoning is a good one.

I can write up and post my recipe later when I’m on my laptop if you want it. Let me know.

Had a look, Ocado here sell quite a few types, they are called different things but essentially are an all purpose seasoning 👍
 
Genessee Oktoberfest:

Every city/region has their traditional “shit beer” brand (Hudepohl in Cincy, Grain Belt in Minnesota, Lone Star in Texas, etc) and in central NY State, it’s gotta be Genessee (along with Utica Club).

Their flagship beer is Genny Cream Ale, but like all these beer-for-the-masses brewers, they’ve branched out of late and have “premium” seasonals, so I had to have this when I saw it.

I like Genesee but haven't had one in 25 years probably.

There’s a story behind getting that:

We first saw it in an IGA in Old Forge (Gateway to the Adirondacks), but I didn’t buy it because I reasoned I’d just buy it (and drink it) once we got to Plattsburgh.

Genny is a central NY brew, so it hadn’t made it up to P’burgh yet, not due for another few weeks, so I figured I’d just get some back downstate when I stopped to pee or get gas.

The two places I stopped…plenty of Genny, but no Genny O’fest.

Made it to the hotel, found a Wegman’s nearby, ran out there, bought a few things, grabbed the beer, but the prick kindly cashier ringing my order wouldn’t sell me the beer without ID, which I’d left in the hotel, so I had to leave it. 😠

Scooted over to Wallyworld just over the road from the hotel, they had it, I had my ID…but they, like sensible people, didn’t card me.

Why are they asking you for ID?
 
Put in a food order for tomorrow. Looking forward to it because things having been the way they are I have done very little cooking over the last few weeks.
I’ve done a little bit but mostly whatever’s easiest for fuelling up. So I’ve decided to treat myself to a few new bits n bobs -

Pricey with mixed reviews but the good ones say it’s halfway between a melon and cucumber -

I’m late to the Kimchi party as I’ve never been a fan of sauerkraut but I’m willing to give it a try -

Haven’t tried the M&S version, hopefully it’s good enough I won’t be bothering to make my own 😂
