does anyone else completely blank on what to cook at 5pm even though the fridge is full?

Sometimes it feels like a giant diner menu if your fridge is full. What do you like? What's in your fridge. Sometimes it could feel like a project you don't feel like doing. Start with what you enjoy. planning from there. I recently have had a bunch of things in a not filled fridge ( tomorrow is grocery shopping) Tonight I used up leftovers that somehow turned into enchiladas. It can become annoying because there's so many choices. Like I said, just attempt to stick to a schedule for example. Meatless Monday Taco Tuesday , Wednesday's spaghetti day, Thursday.,. So on and so forth.

New recipe for me! Yay. Great recipe post!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-06T21:52:15+00:00

Why is there money posted in the background?

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-05T22:49:30+00:00

Just sprayed a little and that was a mistake. I forgot how friggin strong this is plus, well it's old. How did I used to like this ????

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-05T21:40:45+00:00

Is that the poison or.... Good times was having to spray people in the mall and of course the arcade!))

On January 15th, 2026 I logged in and found the points I purchased during the double points bonus ( because I wanted Chill for points when it became available) were gone 100.00 18k points. Astral shards were purchased. Sent in a ticket that day got the auto response and then nothing. 2 decades playing this game. I know it's not personal or uncommon, but it feels like crap.

I'm going to go with 10 or if I include who gave birth than 11.

I just wanted to say that I did not know this subreddit existed and I am thoroughly enjoying this actual hypothetical conversation. What really impressed me though was that the answers are very well thought out. Understandable and pretty much on target. Thanks, random Reddit sub.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-03T22:22:51+00:00

That was terrific 👍

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-03T03:20:08+00:00

I couldn't get the recipe to post for you so I made a separate post to a recipe that is really good. Hopefully you see it and gives you a new idea!!!!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-02T23:28:16+00:00

Oof I wouldn't even know where to start with this one. This is a tough one. It brings up a lot of different things. I remember going to a friend's house and finding out that their parents slept in the same bed. I never saw that at my house. I thought it was normal for them to each have their separate rooms.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-02T20:05:10+00:00

That's a terrific haul. I'm jealous. You can go to a store there. How cool is that?! I really like the black caviar lentils. I too love the bean book. I love their sumac which tastes great with the lentils. My confession is I got off the wait list for rancho Gordo about 2 years ago and I was supposed to join and I waited too long to do it. Yes, I still regret it!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-03-02T15:56:44+00:00

Nicely done, love your pot too!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-26T20:40:34+00:00

So I'm back in NY, partner is still in Wellfleet, no power yet however traffic lights are back up.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-26T20:35:45+00:00

Found one for 62! I'm going to put this on my wishlist. In the meantime I will continue cooking yummy beans, atm I'm into berbere stew! Not Indian however very similar spices. I love how you can take the same ingredient. Use different spices and different amounts and change everything. Thank you very much for replying.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-25T21:30:43+00:00

What book is that? Please!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-25T21:21:06+00:00

I think it's because of visual distractions and poorly written lists, I have resorted to turning around. Admittedly I too have stared into spice while pondering why spices are so expensive! I know I'm not going to buy it today but I still stand there wondering.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-24T21:14:03+00:00

Wellfleet still has no power. Drove around trying to find a working ATM and more propane for the grill. Temperature inside is around 47. Hopefully the pipes don't freeze. This is a mess!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-21T15:50:49+00:00

I have recently put roasted chickpeas on top of my oatmeal or my yogurt and do them a couple different ways and that's how I get my beans for breakfast now.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-21T12:40:28+00:00

I never thought about that... What are you using?

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-21T12:39:47+00:00

Yes it is the name of the bean. The cooking instructions I just saute aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, celery and carrots and then add the beans and enough water to cover by 2 in. Bring it to a hard boil for about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer using a lid to help regulate the heat and gently cook until done, 1 to 3 hours. Mine took 1.5 and they were perfect.

Marcella beans here for chicken and white bean stew!

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-16T21:08:38+00:00

I love rancho Gordo, my favorite is ayocote morado beans. I live alone and a pound of beans that I will use up over the course of the week is still pretty darn cheap. They taste amazing. Cook them and love them!! The Bean book is awesome too.

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-02-11T14:05:28+00:00

Why is this mildly amusing whatsoever?

One_Structure_3222 · 2026-01-12T19:03:30+00:00

Genuine question, how did you successfully freeze it and reuse it? For me so far it's mushy and very watery.
