We continue to get our weekly grocery haul from Aldi via Instacart. I’m so grateful to my daughter for placing my order and having it delivered to her house each week. She’s a good kid. 🙂 This post may contain affiliate links and as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Read more here. …
Getting Back on Track: Three Phase Plan
It happens to us all – a day when things aren’t going as planned and it feels like everything is out of control. It can be tempting to throw in the towel and pour a giant glass of wine. And maybe that’s the best option once in a great while. However, that just adds pressure…
LWD Book Club ~ Village School
Anyone else feel like this year is zipping by? I would have thought time would feel like it’s dragging but for some reason that isn’t the case for me. But here it is, the first of May and time for a new LWD Book Club selection. I find myself drawn to simply, cozy books right…
What’s For Dinner? ~ A Baker’s Dozen
I’ve got thirteen dinners for you this time. It does seem that all I do is cook and wash dishes these days. I hear others saying the same thing. I hope these What’s For Dinner posts give you some ideas or at the very least remind you that you aren’t alone in all this. …
Aldi Grocery Haul

What a lovely…and important…way for individual families to do their part to support a cause larger than themselves. Is it possible to bring…
Beef and Beans ~ A Depression Era Recipe
There are a number of cookbooks from the Depression era which offer a treasure trove of frugal recipes we should tap into. Granted, some don’t fit with our modern situation – for instance, certain seafood items were cheap then but now quite expensive. And some were just plain weird – peanut butter stuffed onions? No,…
What Do We REALLY Need?
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…
