Who says We have to Stand all the time While we Cook? (Flashfood deals and garden is coming in)

 

My flash food order of the week (Meijer)



4- 1 lb packages of ground beef 73/27% fat -$2.99 each 

We don't usually buy this but so far we have used this in tacos and hamburger stew -drained very very well.

Total $12.56



Perdue Grilled Carved chicken strips one at $1.99

Perdue Rotisserie chicken strips 3 at $1.99 total $5.97

total $8.36

Dashmart



7 packages of Oscar Mayer Hot dogs for $1.01 each total $7.42- I couldn't pass up this deal!  Into the freezer they went.

If by chance you haven't tried flashfood yet and it's available in your area you can use my referal code of VICK36PZH and we both get $5.00 towards are order of $7.00 or more on your first purchase. Just download the app on your phone.

In the garden:  


The garden is coming in a little at a time so I'm canning a little at a time.  7 pints of tomatoes.


More zucchini flour.





Today's feat will be apple butter from our apples in the backyard.  I have it all at the table so I won't have to stand.  Who says we have to stand all the time while we cook?


The mustard greens and green beans will be ready the first of next week.   


My two biggest mistakes this week:  

1. Not saving the rest of the cooked cabbage (I gave it to the chickens).  It would have been great in the hamburger stew.   

2. I have an electric stove- I didn't check to make sure the burners were correctly attached and getting hot.  I was pretend cooking for 10 minutes.  Sigh...


How's everything going at your house?

Great deals! I wish we had flash food here.
Yum on the apple butter. Glad you will be able to sit down to peel. Looks like a lot of apples off your tree. Lots of apple goodness.
Have a good weekend.

You did very well with the Flash Food and Dash Mart deals this week. I agree with you on the well drained hamburger meat. At that price. I'd buy that too and drain it well as we have to do what we can these days to save money. Great deal on the OM hot dogs too. And sitting while doing a task like the apples still gets the job done. I often sit while doing tasks like that too. Saves us from back pain.

I'm trying to look for them as much as I can. It helps a lot with the grocery bills.
