I accidently grabbed "light" coconut milk today. I didn't notice until I got it home, "how the [censored] do you make light coconut milk?" I asked myself. Well, near as I can tell you fill the can up half way with coconut milk and fill the rest with water! Shenanigans!

The frozen Naan was pretty great though.

madeira beef stew was just ok.

both of their new 100 calorie snack packs (oatmeal chocolate chip, some kind of chocolate wafer thing) are great.

astro, you still on that low calorie diet? Or did you hit your target and just maintain?

tomorrow morning, before i leave for work, I will smear the boneless leg of lamb that I bought at tj's with a couple of the the tj's cubes of minced garlic, some rosemary from my garden, some s&p and some tj's extra virgin olive oil. then I will brown the roast on all sides, pour in a cup of vermouth (that I bought at tj's) and some beef stock (which tj's does not carry [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]) I will then transfer the whole thing to a crock pot, add some of tj's potato's, carrots, celery and onions, set the crock pot on low and go to work. when i get home, I'll have to de-fat the broth and thicken with cornstarch (non-tj's).

Me gusta la Chicken Chimichangas. They had this great cave-aged Gorgonzola there for a while too but it's long since sold out in the Chicago stores.

Also, in the salad section, the Pear and Gorgonzola salad is great. Comes with a couple of dried cherries, slivered almonds, and a tasty vinegarette. A good salad for 2 along with something else for dinner.
