I should be thinking menu plan but last week was so off, it doesn't seem to make sense to recap. We did eat-too well probably. After a very early and busy morning, DH is making us hamburgers for lunch. The deli had $1 a pound potato salad so that will be a yummy side. Supper will be leftovers-pasta, pizza, mac and cheese, and whatever else needs eating up. What's not eaten will be my lunch tomorrow. The rest of the week? To be determined. I've two kinds of Trader Joe's fresh pasta, and a few other nice things in freezer, fridge, and pantry. A stir fry sounds good, and maybe the quiche and enchiladas I didn't make last week.
I had a little success yesterday at the church garage sale and a nearby "downsizing" sale where I found a couple planters for 50 cents each. At the church sale, I found the plastic child's high chair seat, perfect for all the little beings at the lake and in perfect shape. I found like new jeans for the girls, brand new floor lamp for either DD1 or the lake, and a couple other items for her. It was $5 end of sale for whatever fit in bag. I had a bag plus chair, but gave them a $10 as I still got bargains and proceeds went to camp scholarships.
I just finished scrubbing the planters and doing a bit of planting. I am using a big blue one indoors without its drip base to transplant monster plant. Because it's tapered, it fits in the lined basket still. I got the moldy dirt cut away and hopefully there's lots of room for roots.
Short post as I'm trying to get more tasks done after lunch and before my daughter's 4:00 choir concert. If the day stays nice, maybe I'll watch outdoors. She'll be moving home for the summer two weeks from today. I'll be happy to see her. Enjoy your day.
All our vide greniers (garage sales-ish) are cancelled until further notice and boy am I missing them!
ReplyDeleteI need to give myself rules though, maybe three things out for each thing in. I did toss two things yesterday cluttering up space and it felt good!I will look for other church sales. What deals.
DeleteYou got some great bargains!
ReplyDeleteI think so too.
DeleteNice finds, I would love to go to a garage sale.
ReplyDeleteThe church sale was nice. The downsizing sale was overwhelming and depressing.
DeleteNice scores. I love a good bag sale. Have a nice Sunday evening Sam. :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't pass up the things I found.
DeleteNice shopping!
ReplyDeleteI have a new rule here. For any 1 thing I bring into the house 2 items have to leave.
I thinj I should force even more of a restriction to 3-4 gone per 1 new. The downsizing sale was overwhelming.I don't want that in years with no choices. I can feel how hard you've been working at your moms.
DeleteLove me a church sale! Especially to get rid of more than purchased.
ReplyDeleteIn the fall I plan to be the donate to their cause!
