I was only going to pick up a 1 lb package of ground beef to make meatballs but Caledonia was offering 80/20 big packs for $3.99/lbContinue reading “What We Ate and How Much We Spent on Groceries – Week 10 of 52”

However, I did get quite a bit stitched in the lastContinue reading “SAL-Project Joyce’s Rose #8”
