Kathy, great going on your hair! And more great going on planning your meals out, I've been trying at least 2 meatless dishes, so far so good.
Barb, good luck to your big ds on his cross country meet. I used to do that too, pack an old lunch box with drinks, etc.
Actually that's what I do when I go on trips, as in taking the girls up to Chicago to visit with their dad and grandmother. I pack up snacks in individual bags, the night before I fill old water bottles with either kool-aide or water and that generally will get them thru the worst of it.
I did go to WalMart today and they had some General Mills cereals for $1.98 and I had a coupon for buy 3 get $1.00 off, also had a coupon for Jiff peanut butter, $1.00 for Tide (I bought a big box of powder that was already on sale for $10.00) a coupon for Bisquick $.60 off. They also had clearance sales on summer clothes. I bought 3 shirts for $2 a piece and one shirt was $3.00. It evened out, 2 shirts for dd2, 2 shirts for dd3. DD1 is too hard to buy for anymore, teenagers you know?
Guess I better get moving. Norma inspired me to make chili so I got the fixings to make it tomorrow! Today will be chicken and dumplings. It's my first attempt so cross your fingers.
Have a wonderful afternoon,
Lisa
