Cleaned my canning pantry and counted how much I had left from canning last year. Because of the drought this years garden didn't produce as well as last years.
I won $25.00 gift certificate from the library! I participated in the Reading Challenge for Adults program and put my name in a drawing once a week. Last week I was also gifted a $5 McDonald's card just for participating.
Completed the Kroger survey for more fuel points.
We went to some garage sales and found some great deals. Including a commercial Kuerig for $25.00, more books, and some clothes for me.
Used my $10 off $10 coupon at JCPenny and bought a new shirt for me for $1.92.
Menu-What was on the Dinner Table
Monday Grilled Rosemary Pork Chops, Green beans, creamy coleslaw, tomatoes, and cukes.
Tuesday Hot dogs
Wednesday Sausage and sauerkraut
Thursday Beef Stew (made with vegetables out of the garden)
Friday Husband cooked -Out to eat
Saturday Hamburgers on the Grill
Sunday Grilled Chicken, green beans from the garden, tomatoes, cornbread, and the best ever chocolate cake for dessert (not my recipe).
Please excuse the somewhat blurry picture I'm trying to hide the fact there is a big crack on the other side. It's resting on two heavy duty paper plates. I loved reading Rhonda's blog post how she uses paper plates for gatherings and decided that was a good thing.
Plus I'm exhausted after I had to clean up my mess this morning. Tip: Just be careful and add the hot water slowly ...umm like the recipe says!
