I'm not in charge up here. My sister in-law had gastric bypass surgery a few years ago so she eats different and my brother is picky. Meals are always an adventure and a surprise here. ;-)
I bought some salad kits and seafood so we cobble something together.
What is getting fixed and served at your house this week?
Was last week's plan successful, did you go off plan or did you not even plan what was going to be eaten last week?
Any deals on food at your stores this week?

ReplyDeleteWhatever you do stay away frim their Ghost Pepper potato chips
DeleteWhat in tarnation are 'corn ribs'? Never heard of that before.
ReplyDeleteI wondered about "corn ribs" too. Are they some type of snacking chip? SuzinWA
ReplyDeleteThey look like they took corn kernels off the cob in rows, making rib looking pieces and then seasoned them.
ReplyDeleteI picked up a bag of potatoes at Fresh Thyme for $.49 and then Dave’s mom gave me an extra bag. So potato leek soup it is for the week.
ReplyDeleteI too wondered what are corn ribs.
