Tuesday Tidbits and Stuff

 It was a beautiful day to get out and shop early, the temperature was just at the freezing mark and there was no wind. Well at least that was what it was like when I first went out.

By the time I was done the wind had picked up, and the temperature was dropping. It still isn't as cold as the previous days, but the giant swing made my back a bit achy, and by the time I finished shopping and put things away I was in a great deal of pain.

I will share the pictures of my shopping with you all. I had to divide things up so as to fit all into the pictures.

First up the shopping from Walmart. Some new towels, some gloves for Harvey and a shirt for myself.

I have started to pick up a few items for Christmas as well. The cat food is for our Grandcat Eiko. I will probably pick up a few more in two weeks along with more kitty litter.

I am slowly replacing our towel sets in the bathroom. Just doing one set at a time. The old ones will be heading to the rag bag after cutting up and finishing the edges. 

I also bought a few more forks as for some odd reasons those seem to be in short supply lately. 

There are some small decorations as well, but I put those on the tree almost immediately.

Then it was off to the Co-op for the main grocery shopping.

A few stock up items, but not as many as I had hoped. Prices once again have risen. My whole wheat bread flour has gone up $6.00 in about 2 months. Pretty soon it will be less expensive to purchase bread than make my own.

The fresh produce like lettuce was put in the fridge immediately so no picture of that. Once again there are a few purchases for the Christmas season when Kurt and Kris are home. 

I ordered some sewing things that I can not get here from Amazon and they should be arriving tomorrow and the next day. 

This should be all the spending for this week, unless something surprising happens.

I did not get all the list done today, so I added them to the list tomorrow. Staying home for the next while waiting for the results of my scan or at least a phone call setting up an appointment to go over them, and also waiting on a call about my sister, and the results of her surgery on the 4th. This will save on fuel for the vehicle, and I won't be spending any cash which is always great.

Off to get the ham casserole put together and the table set.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.

Menu Monday

 

A new month has arrived and it has brought with it very cold weather. Time to have tummy warming meals a bit more often, even if I am trying to use up the many packages and containers of leftovers in the fridge freezer and the chest freezer. 

Monday

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and corn. I might rip up what remains of the salad and have just a salad made of lettuce and sweet peppers.

Tuesday

Leftover Ham made into a casserole along with what is left of the lettuce mixture and carrots.

Wednesday

Leftover meatloaf, fried leftover mashed potatoes with onion, and peas.

Thursday

Leftover ham casserole, and a salad.

Friday

Scrambled eggs on toast. Perhaps some hash brown patties if I can find a good sale.

Saturday

Soup and sandwiches. Probably the Mexican soup that I have a few containers of. Sandwich wise, not too sure as of yet.

Sunday

Chicken Parma, mashed turnip/rutabaga, and a salad.

This should help clear out the freezer just a bit more. Trying to make room for any leftovers once the boys are home for Christmas.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.
