So, Philadelphia cream cheese is $3.89 lb. Bacon is $7.99 lb and asparagus is $2.99 lb.

I figure it costs $1.80 to make those bacon wrapped asparagus bundles 114 bought for $1.49. I estimated a little high, but I don't think you could make them much less than $1.49.

The first Matrix movie succeeded because of Lawrence Fishburn’s performance. Yes, there were other strong performances from supporting cast members, but, if you take Burntfish Larry out and put any other actor in the role of Morpheus, the movie doesn’t get the box office and the sequels don’t get funded.

Watched Knives Out. Rooted for the nurse. Was halfway hoping for a scene in which the family members all asphyxiate together in a vehicle. By the conclusion, I was glad it ended as it did.

It’s hard for me to see cream cheese with asparagus, what am I missing? Is it the bacon part?

Yea, the bacon.

Its a grocery store and they are focusing on marketing. They needed to make it easy to cook, inexpensive to make, attractive and hopefully sell the individual ingredients to us later. It won't take the asparagus and bacon long to cook so the cream cheese was perfect. Velveeta would melt too quickly and a harder cheese wouldn't melt completely. The cream cheese would definitely require some salt and the bacon will add most of it.

If you made it at home you wouldn't use cream cheese, but it would require more asparagus and another piece of bacon. Your bundle would cost $4 to make and would require more attention when cooking.

Jmho.

Meh, mostly just because I'm interested in it and have done it most of my life. I'm sure you have your job (still not certain what you do) down to a science. ORB could teach me a thing or two about running a kitchen at a healthcare facility. Orange sunset could teach me about AC units. TFG could educate us all on internet porn, STD's and painting mailboxes.

I mess with computer programs Excel, jms microstation and spreadsheets. I design and draft jobs for construction to build like cell towers and business and areas like 300 home area I keep are communication working. Fiber to cell home or business I design those kinda jobs for construction to build. Right now I am working in all of Florida working to get all the old telephone poles out of the ground from Titusville to Miami to Fort Myers.

See there, that's impressive, I flip burgers.

Did you use hickory charcoal or hickory wood chips? I've never used the charcoal.
