Caution - if typos bother you, then just pass on this post. I'm doing it on an iPad and the app has a mind of its own but I can't go to our desktop right now and I'd rather just post, flaws and all, instead of wait until I have the opportunity to do it differently.
below is my version of a meal that I enjoyed so many times in the past, cooked by both my Grandma and my mom. It's round steak, lightly floured and pan fried with mashed potatoes and gravy and homemade buns. My grandma served fried steak for breakfast with biscuits and gravy most every morning. I am well aware nutritionist would be aghast at this but Grandma lived to 99 and Grandpa lived to 89. They also ate homemade pie everyday 😄
I am doing this post on my iPad and the text keeps jumping around so I apologize if it is formatted in a weird way.
But it's just a blog post -
This afternoon. I had some time to myself and spent 3 hours shopping. I hardly ever shop this long but the weather was beautiful and I really enjoyed it.
I hope to post tomorrow and show you all my purchases. It's quite an assortment.

No pie for us, And that plate of steak fed my husband and I as well as my parents 3 meals.
It was so good too!
We've also had bkackeyed peas cooked in the crockpot and banana muffinins baked in a stoneware muffin pan.
I baked double batches of sandwich buns twice
And a double recipe of raisin bread once.
I used my grandparents recipe and let my Zojirushi bread machine do all the mixing- it's not much work this way, and just requires some tending to and shaping, then I bake the buns in a regular oven.
They all get sliced and stored in bags in the freezer until we need them.
I share some with my parents and whoever is eating with us.
CVS shopping for this week and last week- I'm sorry I don't have breakdowns and the receipt photos but I can tell you I spent very little and got back plenty in CVS extracarebucks for the next shopping trip.
We had the pleasure of spending lots of time with our grandchildren over the last week.
Below is a professional photo of almost 5 year old Andie and her 6 month old brother, RJ. They have a 1 year old sister, Charlie, but she didn't want to be in this picture.
And here are all 8 of our precious grands- and it is obviously not a professional photo, but we love it too.
