GROCERY HAUL

 Hello, friends!  I hope you had a great day today.  It was sunny, but rather cold.  Well, it is January so I suppose being cold is part of the picture.  I started a grocery list thinking we needed just a few things but it grew to a huge proportion.  So yesterday I put my order in to Shoprite online and Joe and I went and picked it up this afternoon.  Let me show you what I got.

We are both trying to lose weight.  Joe is doing much better at it than I am.  So we decided to get a lot of healthy fruits and vegetables this week.  We got seedless grapes, halo mandarine oranges and red delicious apples.  I am very happy with the choices they picked out for us.  Everything is just what I would have chosen.

I got some chicken tenders to make lemon chicken.  We haven't had that in a long time.  I got some lactose free milk, frozen french fries, low salt bacon, salmon filets, ground beef, honey sausage, and stewing beef.  I have lots of ideas for dinners.

More fruit.  This time it's bananas.  I went to get a can of tomato soup the other day and found we had none.  So I got three cans of that.  I have to have another test soon so three cans of chicken broth.  This way I know I have it in the house.  I also got some apple pie filling.  I have used it before and it's really good.

I got pretzel sticks for our snack.  It's low fat.  I also got a bottle of olive oil, a bottle of vegetable oil, a box of instant potatoes, a bag of treats for Jack, paper plates, and a refill for our air freshener that we have in the bathroom.

Carrying on with the healthy theme, I got an apple and cheddar salad kit and two Asian salad kits.  These are salads that we both like a lot.  I also got some iceberg lettuce and carrots and a bag of baby spinach.  I have some grape tomatoes in the refrigerator so putting these together I get another two salads.  I also got some eggs.  I get eggs every time I go to the store.  We go through them so quickly.

Jack came by to see what I was doing.  He's such a nosy boy.  But a good one.

From the deli I got lactose-free American cheese, Virginia ham, Swiss cheese and bologna.  I also got a broccoli crown and some asparagus.

After we left Shoprite, we headed to Target.  Joe had to pick up some medication there.  While he was there, he got a few things.  A loaf of bread, a gallon of Turkey Hill sweet tea (my favorite), two boxes of penne pasta, three jars of marinara sauce and three bags of mozzarella cheese.  He is going to make a penne pasta dish and wanted to have everything in the house.

That's the haul for this week.  Hope you enjoyed seeing it.  Now it's time for me to go make dinner.  Hope you all have a good evening.

Until later...
