My personal victory today at Woolworths.

Discounted pasta and Potato salad

Too much?

Potato potato, potatoes for me!

This is gonna be a meal fantastic
Pasta, and a bombastic Salad Potastic
It's a bargain and realistic
Can't cancel potat, they're not problematic
They're charming, hot, sweet, charismatic
Eat potates and you'll feel great, therapeutic
If you hate potates, I am unsympathetic
You're missing out, bad vibes, unromantic
Hate potates, we cannot date, it's pathetic
Give me potats, in men's hats, neurotic
Varied looks but they all smell great, aromatic,
My love for potatoes is galactic, cosmic
Oh oh I'm a culty potato-fanatic
I always believed, never a skeptic
Erratic, measures drastic, complete lunatic
For the taste of orgasmic Salad Potastic!

The potato is pretty filling. Iโ€™m planning on saving the pasta for lunch tomorrow but I suspect the potato salad itself will be a solid meal in its own right.

I was going to cook something else with it. Maybe a couple of dim sims?

Are you anywhere near Footscray, Flemington, or Brunswick? Cheaper Buy Miles is beyond amazing

Unfortunately not. Iโ€™m over in the South East suburbs. :(

A pity. Especially if you like cheese. Multi kilogram wheels of Brie for $10 is pretty common

I still have to try out the kippers as well.

Might get to them this weekend.

Get stuck in with a fork and optional hotsauce, just over the sink

I was thinking toasted sandwich or something like that.
