we really weren’t ‘eat in restaurant’ people anyways. And haven’t been to a movie since 09ish. We might get a drive thru or sonic type thing though. We’ll see how OUR money goes. And how china shipping high tech stuff goes in the next 2 months.

Same here. Although we usually take our daughter out to eat on her birthday in March and we didn’t do that. Drive through - Hubby takes the grand daughter to that pretty often after school, so we didn’t have that expense. We stocked a bunch of meat and stuff to fill up the freezer.

Schwans is our biggest splurge-but that’s just 2 or 3 items twice a month. We still don’t have any lettuce—I’ve got 2 heads of romaine-so I hope our lettuce is ready to eat a few leaves soon. Guess I could get some dandelions to eat-we always let them propagate as an emergency source of food. LOL

We have quite a bit of canned chicken, pork, beef, and ham. Most of it I bought on sale and canned myself, but the ham is dak ham.

I posted a canned pork recipe a few pages back. We’re going to try that one. After we can some broth. That way if we manage to break a bunch of jars we haven’t wasted any real food.

If the canned pork works out, we’ll can some venison and chicken next.

I’m a pressure canner fraidy cat though.

It may be a while before I have my hair done again. I’ll have to take down all the mirrors in the house. Just have to wait and see what happens over the next 3 or 4 weeks numberswise.

Hoping against hope that summer heat and D3 levels will nip this in the bud.
