Grocery frustration
 
I went over to a local mom & pop grocer this morning to grab some much needed items & see about stocking up for at least the first week of SB. The only "ok" cheese they had was American. Everything else had 8 or 9g of fat per ounce instead of 6 or less. And all of the marinara/pasta sauces had added sugar. That I can make myself but cheese? I love my cheese!!!

Ugh.

Hopefully I'll get to make it to a bigger store with more options before the next couple of days are said and done. It's hard since my son is still on Spring Break and I don't drive. On my own I just walk wherever and lug it all back but not with a 5 year old!

I hope your shopping situation improves! As I've refined the things we use regularly in our family, I've found myself stocking up on things I can only get in specific stores. It makes things easier when I'm prepping for meals.

Best wishes!

I had some better luck at Aldi's today which made me quite happy. I probably should have waited until after I go through my new SBD Super Quick Cookbook to see what recipes I want to try, but I'm pretty good at winging it ... sometimes :)
