...we got our InstaCart...and again...
...there was a small issue...we had gotten bananas in our cart...and paid for them....but you can see we didn't actually get any bananas...
...it's so weird that we've been rocking along for 2 years + with no issues...and now...twice in a row...???
...and we got this 2 lb bag of carrots...and not sure if you can tell...but they are HUGE...there's only about 4 carrots in the whole bag...
...we finally got some black-eyed peas again...after weeks of not getting them...
...so we soaked a pound of those...
...and from one pound of beans/peas...we got almost three quarts of cooked beans...so that's pretty frugal...
...the Man had gotten a new Fry Daddy from Amazon...we used to have one in our early married life...I think someone gave it to us as a wedding present...haha...but it's been gone for many years...like Our Airman never saw it...haha...
...we don't normally eat a lot of fried food...but of course we immediately made some delicious french fries for lunch...haha...
...the Man also ordered this Carolina Gold rice...
...and it has some pretty
specific cooking directions......it's a lot like
the way I generally cook brown rice...where you cook it in a lot of water...and drain and rinse...
....but then they take it a step further and 'dry' it a little bit in the oven...so that was a little bit weird...and I may forego that in the future...I don't mind my rice being a little bit sticky...this rice is really good though...it's got a little bit more of an earthy/nutty taste...
...I made a batch of corn muffins and biscuits for the freezer...also to go with the black-eyed peas...
...my sweet niece had a birthday...
...so I made her a sweet little pink bookmarker and a book...
...and I really thought we'd finish the puzzle...but the Man says there's no need to rush...haha...we'll definitely finish this week...probably...
...and then Sunday afternoon we got Mexican takeout...
...how was your weekend?...
~Wishing you a lovely start to your week!
