Getting it together

Yesterday was my brother’s birthday, and we all had such a great day! My mom and brother were so kind to take me grocery shopping for my entire March menu, and so helpful too. We managed to get everything in two carts, and now I have everything together and stockpiled for an entire month!

We came back to our house for a birthday party for Rob. It was so much fun, and Thade had a great time too.

Today I’m cooking and getting the kitchen organized. With all of those groceries, they have got to go some where. I have lots of space, or so it looks. But looks can be deceiving, and every surface in the kitchen is covered with something. I have a lot to do and a lot to cook too. I guess I should go and get to it.

Shopping Day

Today the little guy and I were off on a shopping adventure. I didn’t feel like driving 30 minutes to go to the nearest supercenter, so it was off to the local way too expensive grocery store, and a hope not to spend too much along the way. I’m cooking dinner for my brother on Saturday, it is his birthday. I set my budget for $60.00, and came out of the store for about $41.00, so way to go nico! Thade was great too, no tantrums, and a really long nap after lunch.

There is good news, our little town is finally getting a supercenter. It should be open next month, so I will no longer have the hour round trip to go grocery shopping! I can’t wait! I’ll be saving time and money too.

A break in the weather

Finally the cold weather has gone away, at least for a little while. And boy do we need the break, I just got the gas bill today, and I’m still recovering. We are going to get out this afternoon and run a few errands, thank goodness Spring is almost here.
