GCC Shopping Round Up


Boy oh boy did I need to shop today. I skipped last week, ended up getting snowed in for several days and looked forward to stocking up today in between doctors appointments and drivers ed classes and homeschooling. My head is still spinning from today. But I did manage to get some groceries. I'm also trying a new vegetable. Squash makes us gag around here but my friend made it sound so good that I thought I'd try some butternut this week. My fingers are crossed. And is it just me or are prices REALLY climbing? Sheesh!

I roast my butternut squash in the oven with sweet potato chunks. They are super good, even my picky eaters devour them.

prices are definitely going up-it's been on the news quite a bit (even Dave Ramsey was talking about it on his radio show last night!).

I use butternut squash in pumpkin recipes like muffins, bread, etc. and my family cannot tell the difference. I actually like the taste a little bit better than the pumpkin.
