Granny's gone and done it again

On the good side Granny I saw strip steaks today for under $9 a pound down from $15 on a sale. I suspect a loss leader to get people into shop.

I dont know how much it was except it was $15 for the whole thing. Its a (insert cuss word here) shame we cant afford to eat.

We have started tracking the cost of eating using a spreadsheet to record the cost of items bought each week and the total cost for the week.

To bad you can't use the seasoning in a pot for you and Tom and then an unseasoned pot for him?

It still taste pretty good without the seasoning. We dont really miss it.

Granny my first paying job where they withheld tax and SSI was bagging groceries at an A&P store. I noticed how different families that I knew from school shopped and how they bought food. One family especially. They were one of the poorest families that I knew. The kids had some clothes made out of flour sacks I think. Sure did look like the big bags of flour that came in cloth bags. The father was a common worker in the orange groves. The mother was a stay at home mom with a house full of kids. When I took out their groceries they sometimes had to carts full. Full of meat, rice, beans, potatoes, flour, sugar, etc. They didn't skimp on anything. They lived in a third world house with no luxuries and were content with it. That was a life's lesson I'll never forget. They didn't teach that at school but did at Sunday school.

Those seeds are big enough to remove before slicing the meat if like the ones we have bought.
