Welcome to Dana's blog!

wacky wednesday and groceries have gone UP UP UP!

Well I did manage to dust nad clean the bathrooms (mostly). But my headache only got WORSE! I was talking to my sister on the phone nad kept zoning out! So I tried to take a  nap and sort of succeeded. It was noon and Mat came in asking if they could have pizza snacks for lunch. Sure, as long as there is no effort from me. They even had ice cream w/sprinkles!

Well, things have definitely gone up here! Peanuts went from $1.69 to $1.99. The tortillas were .99 now, etc, etc. So I spent almost $60 filling the tanka nd almost $60 at the grocery....... I was excited to see they were selling limes and I needed one for my recipe for tomorrow. And they had a ton of mexican food so I got 6 cans of black beans (for the recipe) and 6 cans of garbanzos and a small can of green chilies--I'll use those in the recipe for tomorrow.

So I made it to town. Not sure how cuz I am TOTALLY out of it from those sinus meds!LOL I let the boys buy all kinds of stuff that i normally wouldn't. I think Joey got every kind of soup (I had no idea!LOL) they sold! I was putting it away thinking, when did he get chicken corn chowder?LOL They'll eat it so it's not a big deal, but I certainly hadn't planned on buy soup!LOL

I know what you mean about prices. I have NEVER spent what I spent last time at the grocery. ($350 and it didn't even last the two weeks!) It cost us $137 to fill our truck last night. Eeek! I just do the best I can to plan and save and trust the Lord to meet our needs.

I cannot believe the prices - it is definitely tweaking my food budget! I've been baking more and just trying to only buy essentials.
