Ping for the list.
Every 2 weeks I shop for “stuff”.
First store is WM for paper goods and cleaning supplies and such and the second is Publix for anything they might have on sale, and that could be anything I use and still have on my list....
And if I don’t use a list, I can’t remember what I need anyway...so I stick very close to it. :-)
But for food....every other day or so....that is, if I need anything.
We don’t buy meat at the grocery, because we buy whole cows and put that in the freezer. We buy pork and chicken from home growers that don’t use hormones and they spring feed their stock. Kill and slaughter on site.
I make jellies and jams and freeze veggies, and sometimes can in the summer/fall depending......
We don’t eat junk. I make everything from scratch, including dressings and condiments and all baked goods.
We have a small garden area and my aunt has a large area and she gives me tons of fresh veggies.
I have a small herb garden and love the tomatoes and herbs from out of there.
We have fig trees and apple trees in our own yard and pretty much anything we want grown close to us here. And we’re right close to the city.
I get to the point of wondering if we can keep affording store bought things.
What in the world do people do, that have to get everything from the grocery stores?
We’d be broke if I had to do that.
