Hope you find one. What is a Gali's melon? Never heard of it before.
Hi! I didn’t but I do have other melons.
The Galia looks like a cantaloupe but when you cut into it, resembles more of a honey dew. It does have a slightly sweet taste to it as well. I always put a slight sprinkle of my sea salt on my portion but my spouse does not. I think I got my Galia melon from Martin’s (subsidiary of Giant). Not 100% sure though.
~ Alm. I just saw a YT Just A Dad reviewing the Ninja Creami and sorbet was one of the setting options. I’ve heard of orange sherbet before but up until your posting, I had confused the two. Thought it was same. Now I know, or think I know .
I had a fried whiting fish dinner from a restaurant in Chesapeake called Pirate's Cove. My cousin's brought it for me, they stopped there while out yesterday. Said it was so good they wanted me to try it also. Portions were bountiful and the taste was excellent. Have leftovers for lunch today also.
I am US-born, but my parents were both born in Indonesia, so I love Indonesian food. Just got some Dutch and Indonesian goodies from Peter's Gourmet Market online that I wanted to share the Indonesian items... https://store.petersgourmetmarket.com/
In the middle is ABC semisweet soy sauce - this has much thicker consistency and much more robust soy sauce flavor than typical soy sauces, and yet it's also smoother, less salty and a little sweet - if you like Asian food, this is the bomb!
Then there are two types of chili relishes (sambals) from Conimex there - the Manis is very mild and slightly sweet, and the Badjak is a little hotter. Both are cooked sambals, with other flavoring ingredients beyond ground chili peppers added... like onion, shrimp paste, ginger, molasses, brown sugar... these too, are the bomb!
Then lastly there is a Conimex spice package for making Beef Rendang, the classic Indonesian spicy beef stew, more easily. The instructions are in Dutch on the back LOL... I will see if I can translate with my iPhone as my Dutch is pretty rough!
P.S. Failed with the iPhone, but typing the Dutch into Google online translator worked fine:
500g (1.1 lb) beef steaks, 300ml (1.25 cups) water, 300g (12 oz by weight) rice.
1: Cut the meat into strips.
2: Heat 2 tbsp wok oil in a frying pan and brown the beef here.
3. Add the bumbu [spice pkg contents] and 300ml water. Bring to the boil while stirring and put the lid on the pan.
4. Simmer on a low heat for approx. 50 minutes. Remove the lid from the pan and let the dish reduce for another 10 minutes until the sauce has the desired thickness.
5. Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the preparation method on the package. Serve the Rendang with the rice.

Started with these TGIF jalapeño cream cheese poppers with a slight heat of a raspberry sauce to dip into.
One leftover slice of pizza.
Finished the rest of my Coke drink.
I took one of those peppermint Tums - just in case.sometimes that pepper stuff is ok eating but a few hours later, I’m paying the price.

Oh my gosh, thanks for all that! I have been trying new sauces/flavor combos/etc. lately (getting adventurous in my old age, LOL! ) and that Beef Rendang sounds wonderful. I took a quick look at that grocery store and their prices look reasonable -- I will browse some more tonight!
Oh, tonight I had a "soup alternative" (since Friday is normally a soup day for me) -- a big salad with about 2 ounces of tuna added. Iceberg lettuce (love it for its crunch), fresh spinach, carrots, onions, zucchini, tomatoes, a tiny bit of crumbled feta cheese, and plus the tuna (I tried Tuna Creations herb & garlic), about 1/4 avocado, and some fat-free Italian dressing. The salad was totally delicious and quite filling (I saved a bit of tuna for tomorrow morning's breakfast scramble). Kitties were hovering!
