Lisa and I did our monthly grocery haul in Norman yesterday. My mom was going to go with us but wasn’t feeling well. Hopefully next time! As always, Lisa and I had a nice day together, including a delicious lunch at Tres Cantina. And as always, it was a challenge to get everything put away…
July Grocery Haul
I missed my usual monthly shopping trip with my daughter this month while I was in California. I flew into OKC Sunday night and David, who had been on a business trip also arrived that day. It was late so we spent the night at our home-away-from-home, the Skirvin Hotel, and went home Monday. Before…
June Grocery Haul
These months seem to roll around quickly! Yesterday my daughter and I did our monthly grocery shopping in the city. As usual, we met up with our friend, Audrey, for lunch at Tres Cantina. I don’t know what was in the air but all three of us ended up ordering some type of burger, something…
May Grocery Haul

Anyway, I finally got the one I did last week following Lisa’s and my trip to…
March Grocery Haul

We all enjoyed our yummy food and a nice visit then…
A slow month update- January 27, 2013
I’ve made two brief shopping trips since my last “slow month” update. I had volunteered to make a big pan of green beans for a local charity organization so I ran in to Apple Market following the MLK event Monday. I needed green beans and bacon for the dish (I still had onion at home)…
Another “Slow Month” – January 2013
Last January I embarked upon what I referred to as a “slow month”. You can read about it here. Essentially it involved making use of what I already have on hand, learning new skills, being creative and very minimal buying. I found it to be a good challenge for me, so much so that I…
