I've been informed that my math was wrong on the chicken. My math wasn't actually wrong, but I had transposed my numbers. So my math was right, my numbers were wrong. I'm still very happy with the amount of meat I got for the price (Thank you, Hubba. And thank you for allowing me to continue homeschooling the kids, hehe). I went and did some grocery shopping today. I love sharing my deals, and I really racked up on a LOT of mark-down dealios!! The meat scores are my fave!! MEAT: 23.92 lbs Boneless, Skinless Chicken= $33.01 ($1.38/lb) 5.90lbs Leg of Lamb= $11.74 ($1.99/lb) 3.56lbs Bratwurst= $5.97 ($1.99/19oz pkg) 1.5lbs Breakfast Sausage= $1.98 (99¢ per 12oz pkg) 5.01lbs ground chuck= $8.92 ($1.78/lb) Grand total= 39.89lbs of meat for a whopping $61.62 DAIRY: 2- 1/2 gallons organic whole milk= $1.58 each (That's only $3.16 per GALLON!!) 2- 1/2 gallons chocolate drink (you know the "fake milk?")= 58¢ each PRODUCE: 1 pkg stoplight peppers= $1.99 1 8oz pkg snap p...

I made this apron this morning. I'm in love. I did it without a pattern, so it's a bit rough, but I know EXACTLY where I need to revamp on the next one! I'll be cutting this one at the waist to make a half apron & starting a new one like this. But I wanted to share. And I'll even give myself a shameless plug- If you'd like to purchase one, LMK. I have a ton of stuff to make these, including different colours of denim, so I can make plenty. Here's a pic also, of what it will look like as a half apron. Picture the waistband fringed as well. As soon as I fix it, I'll post the new picture:

I've been baking! Friday it was Peanut Bu tter Cookies. The darling Keena n he lped me with those. He espe cially loved squ ishing them with the fork. I didn't get pics of that part though!

I went thru almost a dozen eggs & 2 pkgs margarine. To day's session rewarded the freezer & tupperwares with lemon bars: A Double Chocolate Kahlua Cake & icing (these are frozen separately & will be assembled when I thaw them): And 2 batches of Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies, some with nuts, some without:

I do, love it in fact! My new header. Thank you so much my friend !!
