The "Will the Health Issues Ever End?" Edition.......
It's a month now since the blood clot was discovered and I am so OVER it and all this testing and pills I need to take.
Now the dr. thinks I have podiatry problems that have nothing to do with the clot so I am off to a referral to a foot dr. as soon as they can fit me in.
Fun times!
For now I am off my feet so meals will be a bit weird, since Hubs has to pitch in......
Anyway, here's a funny photo to lighten my mood......
The Chihuahua has turned her bed upside down but is still laying in it peacefully. That little thing sticking out on the lower right side is her leg.
She is a nut....
Here are the meals that were planned last week--

As for food spending last week.....I spent $89.78 on $145.11 worth of groceries at 3 stores in 4 trips.
I spent $49.69 at one store and stocked up last week on boxed pie crust, frozen veggies, taco shells(bought 10 items and got a $5 off OYNO Coupon), reduced sodium spaghetti sauce, canned tomato puree, some jello boxes, sour cream, diet soda and some frozen fries for #2 Son. Another $11.56 was 2 frozen pizzas and some chicken deli meat, $3.49 on some cooking oil, and the last $25.04 was for 4 lobsters. Lobster is an extravagance yet I only buy it on sale at $4.99 lb. which is less than most steaks around here.
As for food waste, we had to throw out a bit of halushki that didn't get eaten in time. 8-(
Leftovers going into this week--meatloaf, roasted potatoes, rutabaga casserole and lobster(which I will make lobster rolls with).
Here's this week's meal plan---
Sunday--Broccoli Soup, Hubs had some meatloaf too
Monday--freezer leftover chicken and stuffing, baked Butternut Squash
Tuesday--Lobster Rolls and/or leftovers, Beets
Wednesday--Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, Coconut Rice, Mixed Veggies
Thursday--leftover Meat loaf, Roasted Taters, Brussel Sprouts
Friday--London Broil, Baked Potatoes w/Broccoli Soup
Saturday--Leftovers
On the shopping list......I have everything I need to make these meals. Not sure if my foot will be well enough for me to make them all, but I will try. I'll need fruit, lettuce, veggies, milk, lunch meat plus will buy a few things ahead that count toward the Thanksgiving Certificate at one store.
$50 should get me what I need/want to buy.
That's what's appearing on the kitchen table this week here at Chez Sluggy.
What's getting fixed and served at your house this week?

There is a hen thawed and ready to cook. There are plenty of tomatoes, greens and chees for a salad or salads. I have leftover dish of cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and onion that will work for vegetable for several meals. My hens have contributed lots of eggs and there are sausage patties or oatmeal for any meal...lol.
ReplyDeleteI am in the mood for salmon croquettes. That meal also is best with sweet potatoes, turnip greens, and blackeyed peas. There are actually no groceries I need but I have no money, so that is a good thing!
I have injured my foot more times than I can count, all from standing on a slope or even taking a step or two down a slope. It takes forever to heal. Maybe it is something I need to see a podiatrist for, but I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteBahaha @ upside down bed. Sometimes I wish I could do that myself. Especially on a Monday where I dont have to work!
ReplyDeleteI am always surprised how well you adhere to your meal plans. Mine are very much like the wind... all over and ever shifting.
I had leftover ribs with beans yesterday that I brought from parents' house (we made them over the weekend). I'll have the remaining today with some or another set of vegetables. Wednesday I'll have leftover Italian sausages I made last week and Thu... no idea. Going to my parents' over the weekend, so meals are a toss up until Monday morning.
