We’re currently trying to make an effort to consciously spend less while grocery shopping. We send WAY to much money every week. Which is fine now, but I won’t be getting paid for student teaching int he spring so we need to learn to buckle down. We’re planning on going casserole crazy.

What about stews? You have beef, and I don’t think you need cheese for stew (I don’t make it - so IDK..i maybe you do…) I’m a big chili fan too. That can be pretty cheap to make.

Well, as long as dh’s hunting yields something for your freezer, I guess it’s a good tradeoff, LOL. Besides, clearing out the freezer and cupboard every once in a while is good. Although I guess the reason that stuff sits in there might be that it’s not appealing… Like the spaghetti sauce I made a while back. It just didn’t turn out like I wanted. So there’s two ziplocs of it sitting in the freezer. I might use it to make lasagna.

Re your comment - no, haven’t done anything else w/ the zipper. This weekend I’ll buy a new zipper. Progress, LOL.

Have a great weekend.

You’re chocolates are adorable. At my store we have a woman who does centerpieces and such by making different things into chocolates. Just an idea for you =)

Nice job on the biking, my friend! That’s awesome! I’m still not in the groove of working out regurlarly and I fear I won’t get back into it. I don’t know how to get myself started again. I want to ask you how you got back on track but the easy part is the answer. The actual “doing” is the worst part of it =P

Glad to see you are doing well.

Yay for you biking and doing weights! Keep it up!

Very cute candies! Very fancy w/ the white part on top of the chocolate. I need to get going on my holiday baking because we’re hosting something in mid-December and I should get a jump on it or the anxiety will keep building, LOL. But I won’t do it until after Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving we have to find some recipes for a veggie side dish and a dessert. There will be ham and mashed sweet potatoes - any suggestions for another veggie?

Re my Lands End order - no, I just ordered straight from the catalog. If I need to return them, I can do that at the LE Outlet store that’s not too far from the house. The shipping was free on this, so I figured there wasn’t much risk… But I do hope the boots fit because I don’t want to have to exchange them and then have them be sold out of the size I need! I’ve been putting off buying a new pair for a couple years now and my old pair is really beat. They were also LE boots and really did their job, but they are totally done!!

Okay, I’ll stop yakking now!

The chocolates are ADORABLE!

I love Pirates (the first one).. I don’t care for Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom… but I <3 Johnny Depp~ 3rd one focused too much on the first 2… I wanted to see more Captain Jack Sparrow

Have a great one!
