I went and got proper lo mein noodles. I had leftover fried chicken and used the wings for the protein.

I have one more bag of noodles. They are $2.99 for 8 ounces. I will not be buying them again. They are just a egg pasta. I’ll make my own.

Cost per person $4 Cost of I make the noodles: something close to $2.50

    It’s weird how seafood works. Some of the best is in the middle of the country where people will pay more for it. When I lived in Virginia Beach I could get gulf shrimp cheaper than something more local.

    But now the best local option for shrimp is very literally the guy that parks near the railroad crossing four miles away and sells out of the back of his trunk. I’m 2.5 hours from the coast.
