Saturday

I went shopping today and found some great deals.  First of all, I got some local strawberries at a Farm Stand near me and they were so sweet and delicious.  The first local strawberries of the season that I was able to get.  Then I got organic walnuts and organic pumpkin seeds at the Food Co-op near me.   You can buy them in bulk from bins that they have and I just get a medium bag of them.   I like the pumpkin seeds to add to one of my favorite banana, yogurt, chocolate, almond milk smoothie.  I love putting the organic nuts in the fancy Pioneer Woman jars that I have for my pantry.  I also have labels for the jars that are really neat and I will have fun with that.

I also got some garden fresh veggies that were picked from a garden this morning at the same place that I got the strawberries.  I got zucchini, summer squash, patty pan squash and baby cucumbers.

I got a lettuce bag at that Farm Stand the other day that had 4 kinds of baby lettuce, kale, swiss chard and radishes in it.  I made a couple of salads with the greens for two days and today I made a seafood salad to put on top of the greens.  Love it.  I love to make my own dressing and shaking it up in a little mason jar.

I went grocery shopping and the above plant caught my eye.  I thought that it was perfect to have for over the 4th of July weekend.

Then on my way home I came upon a farm that had plants for sale at the end of their driveway.  All kinds of plants for only $2.00 each.  I could not resist the above Marigold plant.   It looks really nice in one of my favorite planter pots.

I stored the strawberries in an air tight mason jar and put them in the fridge.  I read one time the this keeps the berries fresh longer.  And I have tried it and it really works.

Then gas costs $2.27 a gallon near me.  The town near here in NH where I get my groceries, it was $2.19 a gallon and if you pay cash, it’s $.05 less.  So It cost me only $2.14 a gallon and $10.00 filled up the tank of my Prius.   Love it. ❤

A very fun Saturday.
