Minor's folly

 I first bought Minor's beef base and also chicken base at Carfagna's for $6. each.  It is a great product for enhancing soups and stews.  Just a teaspoon or even half that can make all the difference. The next time I found it on line and paid eight dollars and ninety nine cents for the same size and same product. Yesterday I went on Amazon to buy the beef again and it was twenty six dollars for (one) the exact same thing, same size etc. I call that unreasonable. We are being taken for a ride.  The good thing is there are a lot of beef based products on the market and even if this is best, I will never buy it. Saying no is the beauty of the situation. (I also have the chicken base, the mushroom base and the vegetable base still on hand. I just checked on line again and Walmart has it, 16 oz. for $31.00. I don't want it from another store on line. Amazon has all my information and it's free delivery and a click away. Boo humbug

I am still using the gargantuan pork shoulder roast.  It's soup today, yesterday it was pork stir fry...there's more. Luckily I am cooking for Adam and his girl because they are so busy getting settled. He stops by each evening for the goodies. So soup with pasta stirrings tonight. (little tiny tiny egg noodles which taste good and helps to thicken the soup)

I don't want to waste any part of a year but I tell you I am looking forward to January 1. I will be jubilant.
