{ Grocery Day and Big Mac Sloppy Joes for dinner }

IMG_3363

I feel like I just picked up my groceries a few days ago, but it's already been two weeks, and it was time for a grocery pick up again.  I am starting to get a bit of cabin fever when it comes to grocery shopping.

While I've enjoyed the pick ups and the ease of shopping from the comfort of my own home, I quite loved the experience of actually going inside the store.  Hoping to get back to that soon.

But for now, here is a quick glimpse at my grocery haul for the next two weeks.  It is not a lot, I am sticking to very easy meals and using what I have in my fridge and freezer.

I am also busy working on long term meal plans.  Well, long term, meaning months in advance.  Just writing down meal ideas, going through the cookbooks, and looking online as well.  I think it's good to be prepared in advance and to always have some extra meals as backups.
 
That's what I spent today doing, aside from the grocery pick up, putting away everything, cleaning and doing laundry and paying bills.  I ended the night making some Big Mac Sloppy Joes.  I'll have the recipe for you soon, really going to try and get it on the food blog, but if not, it will for sure be here on this blog on our next Cooking Thursday.

Hope you've all had a wonderful Friday.  I for one am so happy that the weekend is upon us.
 
Have a blessed night and I'll see you back here tomorrow!

There were a few items I didn't get because they were out, and so tomorrow I have a smaller order to pickup.  Mainly drinks and my laundry detergent and softener.

The total for this haul was $281.39 and the smaller one tomorrow is $81.  Y'all $81 for 4 of the 12 packs of drinks, diet coke, dr pepper, mountain dew and sprite, a 40 pack of water, laundry detergent and softener.  That's it.  Lord helps us all!

Now let me quickly show you my sloppy Joes, they were delicious and tasted just like a Big Mac.  We each had one, which was plenty because they're so big, and I still have some of the meat leftover, which will be used for nachos for lunch tomorrow.

Love that first pic! Wax is my thing, hehe. I haven't seen Warm Rustic Woods at my store. I don't remember if I like that one. It has a fall looking label though, so I'll probably get it if I see it. =)
