I have taken to using Instacart to find out what’s in stock at various local markets. It’s a time saver – if not always perfectly accurate about inventory.

Same. Massive time saver.
Also helps when you go to the store and someone says they don’t have it, but you pull it up on Instacart and bingo! They have to actually look for it, because it’s definitely in the store.

That’s sort of amazing! Do you know how it works?
Yes! The subtitles seem pretty accurate. As an added bonus, I am also beginning to learn the words for the ingredients in Hindi (is it Hindi? I don’t want to assume…) The recipe is also written out in English in the space below the video and I often cut and paste that into a Google Doc to reference when I’m cooking. He is definitely fun and funny! “‘Ranveer, you didn’t tell us!’ Ah, but I did!”

So, my friend, originally from Jordan, made an enormous pot of navy bean soup with veggies and just over a lb of smoked turkey wings. He said where he is from, they aren’t familiar with navy beans, he soaked 2 packages in cold water overnight.
He, his wife and 4 kids, some in 20’s!) ate the whole pot for dinner. Once son thinks he should double the wings next time.
So, it’s so economical and tasty. I love it that he branches out, experimenting with new recipes. He brought me some to try, I added sea salt, pepper, Tabasco, butter.
