Easy supper

Some of the grands are here so I cooked a kid-pleasing, easy meal- burgers with lots of fresh toppings and brownies.  

Much of it is compliments of Kroger. 

Oklahoma has no brick and mortar Kroger stores but we can get Kroger delivery from a distribution center about an hour away. 

Before Christmas,  I placed a large order, maybe 15 bags full.  When it arrived,  there were packages of frozen burger patties that I did not order in 2 different bags.

When stores mistakenly deliver things,  they never want them back and tell the customer to enjoy or pass the product on to a friend.  

Kroger Delivery offers 2 Free-bees every week.  A few weeks ago,  one was brownie mix.  The past Free-Bees have been products like peanut butter, barbecue sauce, canned vegetables, food storage bags, etc. 

The buns were also from Kroger, from their flash sales available just before you check out.  

I rarely find sales I want in local grocery stores so I’m very thankful for Kroger delivery.

The grandsons and my husband were especially happy with their supper tonight 😋

Happy 2024 🎉

I certainly hope it’s going to be a happy 2024- who knows though…..the last few years have been pretty rough.  

But I’m an optimist so I’ll be looking for happy days ahead.  

I made a new to do list for this week.  

To celebrate the new year coming in,  we watched a livestream from Branson last night.  It was by the Haygoods and Clay Cooper and team.  

It was really good and certainly cheaper and easier than an actual trip.  

At midnight,  they had a big ballon drop that looked really impressive on screen. 

Today,  our daughter and family came for our traditional new years lunch, based on old Southern traditions 

Black eyed peas, cabbage, rice, cornbread muffins and sausage.  

JJ is growing but I still think he and the New Year elf, bought years ago at a thrift store, resemble each other.  

Goals for 2024 

My list is short and realistic for what I could accomplish 

Daily I plan to 

Read Bible

Sew anything 

Walk 

I want to do  Casual couponing 1 or 2 deals a week 

Last week I went to CVS and got a giant jug of Tide for about $9

I plan to do small deals on products we use.  But it will be very casual.  I thought about going to Dollar General Saturday when they have the $5/25 coupon but I didn’t feel like leaving home.  

Continue decluttering and downsizing home possessions - I’ve done a lot over the last 2 years but would still like to do more. 

Pay off Avalon My husband couldn’t drive his pickup anymore (back issues) so he traded it for a comfy sedan the end of the summer.  There is a small loan with a low interest rate for the difference.  We’ve been paying extra and hope to pay it off in the spring.

As weather permits- get back yard straightened up
