It is not often that I miss an afternoon writing a posting! Today we actually had some things to do! First off there were doors to fix! The front door and our master bedroom doors would not stay shut! A real problem for the front door! Thankfully Shawn is more than capable of handling that! So as of now we have doors that work! We also had to go grocery shopping, thanks in kindness of some one's generosity! We strive so hard to make the absolute best of what is given to us. In honesty I have found the grocery stores down here a bit on the expensive side! On a whim we decided to continue straight on a road we travel frequently, usually we take a right onto a side street and that takes us out to a main drag. And what do you know! There was a Sav-A-Lot! This is a grocery store chain we shopped at in New Hampshire. What makes this store so great is that they specialize in store brand and off brand groceries. Trust me nothing wrong with either! They also sell meat and produce at rates up to 40% less than other grocery stores! We have never had an issue with anything we have ever bought from the one in New Hampshire and let me stress the meat and produce are NOT out of date! They just do not offer the larger selection that Major grocery chains do. Seeing most specialty meat cuts are for beef and we do not eat red meat, that is no issue for us! This store is just four months old we were told! We couldn't have been any more excited! We left with more groceries than we thought we would be going home with! A big thrill for us was to find the frozen Tilapia we all love, less than $4 for 6 fillets. We had that tonight for dinner with white rice and cinnamon/butter carrots...yummy! When you do the math it works out to approximately $1.25 per person! Nothing gives me more joy than puttering around in the kitchen! A few crushed vegetable cracker from the Dollar store and some garlic and sea salt seasoning (also from the Dollar tree!), some margarine and you have a wonderful crumb topping, sprinkle over the fish, top with a slice of lemon and then bake for 25 minutes! Delicious! OK, I know you do not read my blog for the recipes!
Still no news as of yet on the financial front! We continue to wait! We will stay patient and pray diligently!
I again have to extend a big "stay safe" to those in New England! It would seem yet another storm is heading their way! Have you guys even finished cleaning up after the last one??? Wish I could tell you I miss shoveling!
The Lord blesses his people with peace.-Psalm 29:11
