"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I tried trader joes, but what I only found was a couple bucks for a small carton. Screw that. Cream was a favorite of old school lifters, so I am assuming that its cheap.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You are correct. Even at Walmart its expensive. I use to try and add a Tbsp here and there to stuff just to bump calories.

But I guess all in all you just need to break it down by serving per container and see what it is per Tbsp or what not, and then see if it is worth it. Compare it to cost of peanut butter, oils, or other stuff. Though we are talking different aspects of fat, I would almost say that if you can eat an egg it will be cheaper and have much more to offer.

The price of some things are just outrageous these days.

it's gotten outrageous due to changes in how we acquire it. it was a fave of old school bodybuilders b/c until homogenized milk you would just skim the cream off the milk & use it immediately.
