Grocery Shop

It’s been a bit since I’ve done a weekly grocery haul recap. I’m planning on eating a bit out of our freezer this week, and I was hoping that would keep our grocery bill down, but of course I still managed to spend more than I thought I would.

Bananas
Bosc Pears
Raspberries
Bing Cherries (on sale, but [...]

I’m glad you all enjoyed Brent’s review of the restaurant too! I’ll have to work on getting him to share his wit on the blog more often.

And, we have leftovers! So I made sure to pick up some salad to have tonight to use it up. Also [...]

Friday Night Cocktail & Saturday Night Grocery Shop

After the week we had, I felt a Friday Night Cocktail was a must. We didn’t want to really buy alcohol, so I used what we had in the house: tequila! I made a tequila sunrise with 1 ounce tequila, 4 ounces orange juice, and a splash of grenadine.

Restocking

No post for yesterday. It was, perhaps, the laziest day of my life. I napped (more than once), went out to breakfast, went to a party for my friend’s son, and barely made it to the gym 40 minutes before closing, then laid in bed some more. It was glorious, and I enjoyed it very [...]
