Quick one. Tonight I managed dinner by 7, but that's only because it was easy spaghetti (canned sauce), spinach, and canned corn and I thought I'd have it on the table a half hour early. Good thing I thought that.
My Mother's Day dinner was impressively pulled together on time and seemingly effortlessly, as well, so a big big kudos to the great man in charge of that! Maple-soy marinated wild salmon, rice, asparagus, and tapioca for dessert. He also cooked us a fresh batch of pancakes for lunch that day and let me sleep, write in my journal for a good long stretch, and play my flute for an hour and the piano for another half hour or so. He was pooped, but very appreciated.
Yesterday I went a little out of my way to hit a couple of sales, which I think you'll agree were worth the trip: I spent a whole $16
for 10 pounds of butter, 6 bags (pound-size) of frozen mixed vegetables, 7 small avocados, 4 small papayas, and 10 cans of vegetables. (Corn, green beans, peas, wax beans, etc.) Ka-ching! (Need I mention, coupons were not involved?)
I also sold our old, old red Suburban for $400 more than we bought it for. Victory dance...
