Could you stop by a Farmer's Market? I'm sure they would have some good deals to lure people to come since the grocery strike is going on!

Got up this morning at 4:48...I just kept banging on that alarm clock...wouldn't be able to do that if I were working-LOL! I am trying to get used to being up and even doing stuff at 6 a.m. So, I worked on my blood pressures and warmed up leftovers for an unconventional breakfast and swept up the floor and cleaned out the cat litter.

I had read somewhere that you can substitute shredded paper for cat litter, so I can't get to the store until Friday and the cats-(now 3)-really needed the two cat litter pans changed, so I sat and shredded up some newspaper, which I have plenty of since I have the paper delivered for $6 a month, but I only read a few of the articles and use it primarily for sales papers and coupons, so I needed a use out of them...I did use the sunday paper for dd's birthday gift wrap and will be doing that again for X-mas, but other than that, I've been setting it out for the Recycling Truck...

So, I changed the litter and it only took me a few minutes to shred up enough for the two litter pans. I put some of their old litter on top...my cats are very confused-(LOL!)-one was looking like, what's this supposed to be? But, I think if I add a little more they would come to get used to it until I completely, If I choose, fade out the litter or just buy 1 dollar store bag and use to top the shredded paper, to give them the sense that, yes, this is my litter box...

So, happy about that...I made the Peach Crunch Pie for my Graduation on Thursday. I reused a plastic Ziploc bag to enclose it and freeze. It's ready to go, I just need to take it out of the Freezer Tonight and put it into the Fridge so it's raring to go Thursday morning...

I had took one of those cheap biscuits, used half for breakfast yesterday, and just stuck the can w/the rest of the biscuits up into the freezer. I unthawed those yesterday, and took some leftover steak and shredded it and added cheese and made mini calzones for dd's lunch. I also put some of the peach crunch pie in her lunchbox but she doesn't like mushy stuff, so I took it out and put some leftover pineapples in there instead-(from the bulk can that I had, sweetened, bagged and froze 2 months ago).
