Shopping adventures and Soup!

Adventures...


More adventures in food shopping tonight at the MB supermarket. Most of the shelves had product, but weird stuff in wrong places, (you're not supposed to notice...  The cereal box is now 1.2" inches thick?  12 feet of marshmallow fluff, etc.  No beef gravy to be had in the store. Meat prices WTH?  Cold cuts counter was stocked, only a couple slots in the case were empty. Our grocery bill has gone up at least 50% already and were only 2 months into 2022.

Saturday morning I went out to do some ice chopping, so much ice...  I took a walk around the house and decided VERY quickly that I needed my cleats, OMG this ice is so dangerous with a light coating of water on it.  I put my "super cleats" on and headed towards the barn, we're out of sand up at the house, we put sand down, it warms up, the sand sinks underneath the water that melted during the day and freezes again overnight, jeesh. The struggle is real...

Anyway I went to get the ice chopper out of the barn, found the barrel that had frozen sand in it had warmed up with the 50 degree temps yesterday.  It was now nice, loose, damp sand perfect for throwing on the driveway and the walks.  Yay!

Off to Home Depot to get more dry play sand or Sakrete sand whichever they have.  Frozen wet sand is no fun for anyone. "There's a pun in there somewhere"


I made up a batch of Johnnie Searle's Kale soup on Saturday, we had it for dinner and breakfast.

It's just about Chili time too...  I think we're completely out, oh the horror!

You fill in the blank!

You can't make any of this stuff up! The crazy is real!

Guns, Guns, Guns...
