Sheri's Blog

Farmer's Markets are becoming a very popular offering for fresh fruits and vegetables and now is the time to find one in your community.

Last week I posted a blog about fresh produce and realized that while produce is very time sensitive many of the other food items we store are also.  Many foods in your kitchen may be beyond their expiration date.  Our pantries are full of grains, cereals, boxed mixes, that may be expired but because they don't have the appearance of "rotten" like produce items, we neglect to purge them from our food inventories.

I posted this last summer but I think it's a good reminder now that produce is plentiful.  It's hard to properly store food without a reminder from time to time.  The good news is that I haven't seen a rotten bag of green beans for a very long time...thanks to MealEssence.com!

The buzz about coffee: it's more than a hot drink. 

I love the 4th of July! I love freedom, I love everything it represents!  What a great opportunity to be grateful for America. I am so thankful for our independence and the fact that we live in a democracy.

Having Dad at home is actually good for everyone's health!

Not only did I save money at the grocery this week, I saved money eating out!  If you're looking for extra $$$ - planning your meals and shopping trips is the secret!

Another day without a trip to the store. This is going to be a breeze and, remember, I only spent $94.73 at the grocery last week!

Last nights dinner was interesting...

Dinner was so easy today...I love to use leftovers to create more goodness!
