Aldi Addiction
Hello...my name is Jan and I am addicted to the Aldi snack aisle. In my defense who in their right mind can pass up chocolate caramels dusted in sea salt or chocolate covered almonds and don't even get me started on the dark chocolate bars with slivered almonds and a hint of orange. All you judgey people who are sitting there smirking, "Not a problem, I don't like chocolate." Well...too bad so sad because you aren't safe either. You see Aldi's carries these wonderful little powdered sugar pastries that are filled with cream and the carrot cake cookies? Oh, mama.
Before you call in the nutrition police I buy other things at Aldi's too. Love their chicken breasts, pork chops and our Aldi's has amazing fresh fruit and vegetables at very good prices plus most are organic. Don't let the word organic throw you off...it just means the food was grown like our grandparents grew their food, without all the chemicals. I haven't gone all yuppy on you but I do prefer my meats and vegetables without a side of butylated hydroxyanisole or sodium benzoate.
There is also the aisle of shame. Many people save that aisle for last but not me. My theory is to face the dragon and hit that aisle first. For those of you who are not 'Aldites', the aisle of shame is FULL of useful items that you had no idea you needed! You never know what you will find there but you know there will be something great. A few weeks ago I walked into my Aldi's having no idea I needed a 4.6-quart porcelain enameled cast iron French oven. However, when I saw the price of $25 I grabbed one and seriously considered two since it is wedding season. However, I showed a modicum of restraint and limited myself to only one.
Just to keep things real, I already had a French oven. However, it is an 8? quart and I can hardly lift it when it is empty but put a big ole chicken or pork loin in there and I have to call in the neighbors to help put it in or take out of the oven. Eddie? Polly? you have lots of extra hands in your homes....do either of you need a BIG French oven? First come first serve!

Remarkable restraint, only buying 1. So glad you are back at this. The Colonel Sanders blog cracked me up, sad to say I cannot remove that image from my mind now!!!
