December 2020 Monthly Grocery Haul
I debated about doing a grocery haul this month. Not just a post/video, but doing a grocery shopping trip at all! We have lots of produce from our summer and fall garden and plenty of food storage. There wasn’t really much that we needed, but I went ahead and shopped just to replenish our food […]

October 2020 Monthly Grocery Haul
We have had pretty big grocery hauls lately, but October’s was different. I waited until the middle of the month to go shopping, and even then we really didn’t need to go. With the experience of our quarantine food storage challenge and with a garden that’s still producing, we are doing just fine. Still, I […]
