Gotta Love Tuesdays...

As some of you know, Tuesday is one of my favorite days of the week. It is on this day that Jacob & I can do WHATEVER we want. We have absolutely no obligations, no expectations, NOTHING. I really treasure these days because I know they are short-lived. Take for instance, this morning. After taking Matthew to school, we came home,fixed breakfast, watched Curious George and snuggled on the couch for a little bit. We played a little bit of MarioKart on the Wii...so FUN. We then headed out to the Dents Make Cents grocery store. Going here has almost become a "usual" for a Tuesday. Jacob loves the fact that he gets a free piece of chocolate at the checkout line! Today was a good day. Here's what we found:

canned corn $.45
canned new potatoes $.45
canned sweet peas $.45
individual applesauces $.15/each
chili beans $.40
Chef Boyardee Lasagna $.65
Chef Boyardee Beefaroni $.65
canned saurkraut $.45
Juicy Juice Cans (the kind you mix with water) $.80
individual juice pouches $.10/each
individual Kool-Aids $.15/each
Wonder 16-pack hot dog buns $1.25
Hostess Ding Dongs (12-pack) $1.50

Quite some deals...I'd rather spend less on groceries...that just means more to put in savings or to spend on other FUN stuff! If you havn't gone hear, you should try it sometime...you never know what kind of bargains you'll find!

Oh, yesterday I tried a super easy crock-pot recipe that I got off of another blog that I read.

6 pieces chicken breast (skinless, boneless, frozen or not)
2 cans cream of chicken soup or 2 cans cream of celery soup
salt/pepper to taste

Place in crock pot on low for 12 hours. Serve with rice and veggies. So simple and it was really good. Great for a MONDAY.
