Hello everyone
The 3 local grands spent the night with us.
We worked some of the jigsaw puzzles I bought at the new salvage store
We made some bead and chenille stem creations
And I put the littlest guy to work. This laundry room cabinet is deep and I saw there were 3 jugs of Tide hiding in the very back.
He happily crawled in and pulled them to the front so I can use them
I did a Walmart grocery pickup this morning. I got produce for next week and I wanted to get more Hershey chocolate mint candy canes before they are gone- I’m sure they will only be available through Christmas. I also got a box of Oreo candy canes.
The Oreo ones are OK but not nearly as good as the Hershey chocolate mint ones.
I got a few substitutes and the best one was getting a 22 ounce box of ham instead of the 9 ounce I ordered and paid for
The new grapes are very good.
As always, I rebag the green vegetables and squeeze out all the air. I think they last a lot longer and are crispier when kept in a sealed container.
I like these plain storage bags that use a twist tie- they are about .02 each and I think that’s budget friendly.
I ordered bananas again and today they arrived yellow instead of green like the last green bunch.
Meals -
The turkey lentil chili was ok but when I make it again, I will the spice blend I prefer from flat landers chili instead of the spice amounts on yesterday’s recipe.
flat landers chili
Supper last night was hotdogs, chili, corn and oranges.
Breakfast was scrambled eggs and oven bacon. The grands had reheated frozen pancakes and I baked the last 2 freezer biscuits for my husband. I had my eggs and bacon on a pita.
That meal was enjoyed and used up 4 bags of odds and ends in the freezer.
Lunch was sandwiches with grapes and the children all had a candy cane for dessert.
Supper will be a baked chicken with salad and sweet potatoes.
The weather forecast is for snow tonight. We do get snow in Oklahoma but not too often so it’s kind of exciting. And it won’t bother us if the roads get bad because we aren’t going anywhere.

Thnak you, you’re very sweet and what an accomplishment to make 4 quilts since September.
Frugal Things Everyday is still active but she moved to Wordpress instead of Blogger. Her blog looks different but she is still putting out really good posts.
I’m not sure but I think you’ll need a Wordpress account if you want to leave her a comment
The grands have gone home and now I’m going to relax with some hot 🫖
Hope you’re all having a good Saturday
