No one will deny these are challenging times. Yet, ever the optimist, I’m looking for the lessons to be learned. One of those lessons is: What do we really need? That’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot the past several weeks. I’ve discovered that I’m spoiled…or blessed…whichever way you want to frame it. This…
Aldi Grocery Haul
We are finding it easier to get a delivery time during the week so this order was from this past Thursday rather than Saturday. It was a fairly small grocery haul for a couple of reasons. First, I’m trying really hard to use what we have and not waste anything. Second, I had more fresh…
Haluski ~ A Depression Era Recipe
We all need a few simple, low-cost meals in our repertoire and Haluski is a perfect addition. Cabbage, onions and noodles. It doesn’t get any simpler than that. And despite the humble ingredients, haluski is remarkably delicious. This post may contain affiliate links and as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Read more here….
Rice, Bean and Lentil Recipes: Pantry Meals
I think we can all agree that a well-stocked pantry is a blessing. There is a lot of security in knowing that no matter what happens, you can at least feed your family. When it comes to versatility, you can’t beat rice, beans and lentils as pantry staples. These long-lasting foods can be prepared in…
What’s For Dinner? ~ A Dozen Meals
I’ve got an even dozen meals to share with you for this What’s For Dinner post. The only meal I didn’t photograph was the pizza we picked up a few nights ago. I had cooked dinner (and prepared all meals) for 38 days in a row so when David suggested picking up pizza – curbside/contactless…

Saturday has become grocery haul day during “this time”. My daughter places our order (and my parents’) through Instacart and our Aldi order is delivered to her porch. We’ve generally done pretty well getting the items we need but this week there was no lettuce of any kind, no cabbage and no eggs. David went…
Quarantine Soup ~ Using Up Leftovers
I’ve become acutely aware of food waste these days and am doing everything I can to avoid it. One of my favorite ways to use leftovers that might otherwise go to waste is to turn them into a delicious pot of “Quarantine Soup”. A steaming bowl of flavorful soup and a couple of homemade biscuits,…
Grocery Haul in Time of Isolation
I haven’t done a grocery haul post in awhile but thought I would start doing them during this time of isolation and social distancing. Grocery shopping is one of those things we used to take for granted but life is very different now. This post may contain affiliate links and as an Amazon Associate I…
Fresh Banana Cake
I’ve been seeing lots of people making banana bread lately which is all well and good. But why make banana bread when you could have fresh banana CAKE? I’ve made this twice in the past two weeks and am currently eyeing the ripening bananas in the fruit bowl. This post may contain affiliate links…
