> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > Welcome to the MMP, **Madame**!! And to partially answer for **doggio** : there is a [recipe blog](http://mumpersrecipes.blogspot.com/) where a lot of us have shared our goodies. I don’t know what \*\*doggio \*\*has contributed, but it’s a place to start. Personally, I think he works from a massive “What to do with chicken and rice” cookbook. 😉 It’s cheap and healthy.😛 Welcome, **Madame** , I’ll have to add some of my recipes to the blog. And you should put up a picture of Frank Sinatra next time they close things off. “Egress ,I’ve had a few, but then agan, too few to mention…”😃 > [@VunderBob](#): > > Blurf.

> [@dogbutler](#): > > **Ruble** , I got _Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!_ DVRed.😃 The best thing about Sharknado 3 is all the other shark movies they’ve either made or pulled out of the vault to make a celebration out of it. Right now is Jersey Shark Attack with some of the most classic Garden State over-the-top acting I’ve ever seen. I feel like someone should have gotten a 10 minute major for too many stereotypes on the ice at one time. 🙂 > [@Catamount](#): > > Is it better than The Second One? > > . Could it be worse?

> [@kopek](#): > > Could it be worse? (Actually it airs Wednesday) Judging from the [movie I watched last nigh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Barbarians_%28film%29)t, yes. Is Syfy showing _Megashark vs. Crocasaurus_ starring Jahleel “Urkel” White? That was a fun bad monster movie. ---

(post #59) 😛 Back from filling the truck, just because. The store where I sell my stuff has a FB page, and they’ve posted that they sell local organically raised chicken - $4.95/lb!!! Can they possibly taste 5X better than the chickens I get at Food Lion for 99¢/lb on sale?? I kinda doubt it. In any case, ain’t no way I’m spending over $20 on a chicken that isn’t served with salad, sides, dessert, and a strolling violinist. OK, we can skip the violinist - don’t need that noise when I’m trying to eat! 😃 ---

\*\*doggio \*\*- you’re going to hell for that, just so you know. 😛 Just got off the phone with my supplier. We’re getting 3 tons of pellets delivered some time in the next 2 weeks. Last year, we paid $209/ton. This year it’s $269/ton. ouch! And that’s still the cheapest price I found around here. Even including the delivery charge, $857 to heat us all winter is a helluva deal - it’d be at least half again that much if we went all fuel oil. Now I need to clean the garage and clear space for the pellets. Last year we only had 2 tons, so a few things will need to be rearranged. ---
