Totally pleased that I kept it in the $50’s range. I’ll be combining this with what’s in the freezer, fridge and cupboards already to make breakfasts…
Baked french toast
Oatmeal
Muffins & fruit
Bacon, egg & cheese breakfast bake
Poached eggs and toast
Dinners....
Baked potato bar
Thanksgiving Casserole
Crockpot Chicken stew with peasant bread
Soup made with leftover meat/veggies and fresh bread
Hot dogs and fries
Pork roast
Leftover nights
And all that planning hurt my head so much that I couldn’t come up with lunches so I’ll be winging it.

I've got to try that bluing thing you recommended. I need a white sock miracle!
Miss you.

Thanks for the inspiration!
Is that a Cadbury Dark Chocolate bar? Those are the best!
