The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

[igorsMistress]

Good grief, I woke up extra early and chatted with Marie a bit. Then wandered back to bed leaving my computer up and logged on to BYC. You all didn't hear me snoring did you?

I wondered what all that racket was.

I almost had a heart attack at the store today when I checked out. I spent close to $200 and walked out with a small cart and it wasn’t even full! Nothing special either, just regular stuff. At walmart no less, it’s not even like I went to Kroger or Sprouts.

I hate grocery shopping. Things are so expensive.

I can't seem to go without spending over $300. And it's just two of us! Of course, I only go every 10 days...less if I can.

Happy Father's Day to all of the Father's out there.

I go grocery shopping every week and I can't get out of there for under $120-$130. That's seems high to me. Also, every once in a while DH will stop and pick up a few extra things. We rarely eat out and usually have 2 meals a day at home. We've cut out a lot of snack things and I try to use up leftovers. Still, it's almost painful to grocery shop.

Hi Cynthia, hope your Sunday is going well

I tried the lemon emulsion Debby. It has a good lemon flavor. I’ll try them out on my family tonight since we’ll have a few extra bodies here. I put a smidgen too much food color in.

Good to know! My coffee emulsion should be here Tuesday (along with DH's Father's Day gift ).

I'm going to use it in chocolate cupcakes with chocolate/coffee frosting for DH to take to work...after I get one of course! (I plan on using a little bit in the cupcake batter too.)

We don't do any junk, but his low carb diet is very expensive. I try to stick to mainly fresh foods and extra good cuts of meat. I could go meatless, but Jim cannot. I rarely buy any canned or prepared foods, other than olives, mayonnaise, mustard, and that sort of stuff. If I lived alone, I'd probably exist on grilled cheese sandwiches and shredded wheat cereal with bananas.
