My Mini Grocery

stock pile

I finally got a box for stuff to be sent home. We are in the process of filling it up and with all the stuff I have amassed since November, a box isn't enough. It is going to be filled up with toiletries that's for sure. I would send more if I could, I have so much especially with my recent shopping trips.

Paid $7.78

Paid $4.54

Paid $4.17

Not everybody will agree and some might even laugh but I don't have any qualms, I love my coupons and the free things I get. I am so excited in sharing all these with my family back home and I look forward to many more good deals and freebies :D

Appetite Has Sprung

We've been having new meals lately and thanks to the slow cooker, life's easy these days. It allows me to go out for my coupon trips and go home to a sumptuous meal. I didn't like using the slow cooker before as I don't have any patience for it but now I am truly surprised how delicious our meals have turned out and how easy it is to prepare everything.

Aside from the slow cooker, the grill pan is my other favorite in the kitchen. I found it very useful and caters to our love for grilled food.

our new favorite

Few weeks back I bought 72 cans of soup and we're probably down to 50. I use the tomato soup and mushroom soup for cooking while the chicken noodle soup is a favorite of the kids.

Another favorite of the family lately is cheese omelette, I tweaked it a bit and included tuna. As we're trying to healthy and eat more vegetables lately, another variation of the veggies and shrimp I included quail eggs and used chopsuey mix.

Who needs to eat in restaurants when you can make all these at home? Thanks to my kitchen gadgets and hubby's appetite and appreciation, I won't ever slow down in creating new meals and more grilled food. Hooray for spring! :D
