Garden Update

I shared with you that I wanted to show a picture to you of what we picked out of our garden the other day. Look at this.....

We picked a ton of stuff that day and then I went ahead and froze most of it. Wow! I remember in the spring when I was so worried that my garden didn't look as good as my neighbor's, but look at me now! This has been so fun and we are loving all the veggies from our garden this year. We EVEN have watermelon growing! Our tomatoes are FINALLY turning red! Wahoo!!!

Just thought I would share.

Thanks!

My Recent Shopping Trip

I know I am a little late in sharing this picture and deals, but I wanted to share with you (for those that are new, experienced, and everyone in between you CAN score some pretty good deals on fresh produce too. I am going from memory, so I will not be able to lay out the deals, but I CAN tell you that I went to three stores, Safeway, Albertsons, and Rosauers. I would have spent $177 and some change, but with coupons and savings I only spent $33 and some change. Here is a picture of what I got.....

I went to Rosauers "Thursday" sale and picked up all my fruits and bags of potato for $15. I saved $24. I thought I would try something different as we usually get our fruit at Costco. So, this REALLY shaved my Costco bill.

Safeway-Again, look here, I picked up TWO gallons of milk on markdown for ONLY $0.99 per gallon. We usually get our milk at Costco and freeze it. (Freezing it works really well for us, as we just use nonfat milk anyway. So, I does not taste watery, as it is already pretty watered down). Oh, I picked up two of those Welch's juice too for only like $0.40 cents with printable coupon from coupons.com and the in-ad coupon too. You need to make a $10 purchase (before coupons) in order to use this coupon.

Oh, I also picked up some free toothpaste. Not-so-free anymore (at least at my Safeway). Apparently, there was an error and the price is supposed to be $1.49 AFTER you buy three (the ad is somewhat confusing), so they recanted that offer, as I found out the hard way the next day. Anyway, this toothpaste, in this picture was free.

Albertsons was AWESOME! I didn't want to wait until the weekend for doublers as this was one of those "they might be out by Sunday," as this was such a good deal EVEN without doublers. Upon thinking about it, I'm not sure the Buddig meat is such a great deal, as, again, I get my lunch meat at Costco and can get more for the price of $5. I STILL DID REALLY GOOD!

Thank you!

Monday, Weigh-In Report

I know I said that I was going to start reporting my Weight Watcher weigh-ins on Monday and I missed last Monday. Well, let me tell you......it really wasn't an accident. I was a bit ashamed of myself, because I "fell off the wagon," AGAIN!! So, was not in a real hurry to weigh-in last Sunday and I didn't. I was REALLY out of town and was going to come back early, but figured I didn't want to face reality. (Well, it was my birthday weekend and that didn't help me to stay on plan at all, as we celebrated THREE TIMES!!!).

Okay, so enough with that. I went in yesterday and paid the piper. Guess what?! I WAS DOWN 1.2 or 1.6, I can't remember, BUT I WAS DOWN!!! I stayed on plan from Monday on and I WORKED OUT TOO!!!

So, I am hoping that I have a good week this week and will be able to report negative numbers next week too.

To those of you that are on a weight loss journey yourself......KEEP IT UP!!

If you have any tidbits, stumbles, successes, questions, answers, stories, please share! I would love to hear what you have!

Thanks!

I'm Baack!

Boy, I have missed you all so very much! I thought about you all, all week. I really wished I did have time to post last week. I felt really guilty for leaving you high and dry. Sorry about that, but boy when it comes to our families we sure do need to pick and choose our priorities when in need. Let me tell you, last week was a time of need. It was only a few days they were in school, but I think I have our schedules figured out. I think. :) We'll see, since this is their first full week of school. We did have a good week though. Blakey has adjusted to his "bestest" friend/sister/Faith being gone most of the day and his "idol" friend/big brother/TJ being gone too. Faith really really likes her teacher and Trent likes his as well. So, things are VERY good on that end. Then, there is mom.....WAHOOO, LET'S PARTAY!!! :) I'm JUST kiddin'. I am just very very happy my kiddos are happy, but I am having a hard time adjusting to our new scheduled. Hopefully, I will have it down pretty soon. I just feel like I DON'T manage my time very well. I get up at 3 o'clock in the morning and go to bed between 9 and 10 and I SOMEHOW don't have time! Anyway, I am SOOOOO glad to be back and posting some deals.

Oh, I have an exciting giveaway that I am going to start this week. So, be on the lookout for that. How does some FREE money sound?!

Okay, I just wanted to say a quick "hi" before I started postin' away!

Happy shopping!
