Those nachos were Friday night's supper (I menu plan from Friday to Friday) and they were delicious! I mixed a little re-fried beans in with the taco meat and ended up with a supper that definitely rivaled Taco Bell's Nachos Bell Grande. Yum. Last week I shared my grocery savings from 2015 - I'm hoping to… Continue reading Ingles Grocery Haul + A Call For Your Questions

Is It Possible To Save Real Money On Groceries?
It feels so good to be back with a successful grocery haul this week! I finished out 2015 with a load of fun grocery deals, including marked down produce and turkey meatballs for $.67! Each week I use Southern Savers to find the best grocery deals, make my grocery list and to track my weekly savings.… Continue reading Is It Possible To Save Real Money On Groceries?
Carrying On When Tragedy Strikes
When horrible things happen, this question always arises in my mind - should we stop everything we are doing and focus completely on the tragedy, or should we continue on in our daily lives? I think the answer involves a little of both with more of the latter. It bothers me when I see people… Continue reading Carrying On When Tragedy Strikes
Family Favorites {Menu Monday}
Happy Monday! The last few times I've shared a picture of my Sunday dinner plate (like this one) I've gotten questions about how I make gravy. It's a little hard to write a recipe for gravy, so the next time I make gravy I will film it and share my process on the blog. Until then,… Continue reading Family Favorites {Menu Monday}
Fun Times For The Grocery Nerd {Menu Monday}
I'm such a grocery nerd. I love everything about grocery shopping...especially saving money on groceries. If I've only talked to you once, we probably talked about grocery shopping (or cats) in the first few minutes of our conversation. It just happens. I'm not alone - it's not unusual to have a phone conversation with my sister… Continue reading Fun Times For The Grocery Nerd {Menu Monday}

Menu Monday + A Change In Plans
I have a very exciting announcement...we have forsaken the Paleo diet! We struggled for six weeks but ultimately decided it did not work for our lifestyle. I'm proud of my husband for giving it his best effort - even for deciding to do it in the first place (it was all his idea)! We're going… Continue reading Menu Monday + A Change In Plans
