But not today, ‘cause I have already been busy. We had a new food store open this morning. It used to be the county market and now it is called Food Depot. Amazing buys this morning, large can mandarin oranges @ 49 cents, Campbell’s chicken noodle or tomato soup @ 3 for $1, etc. But my best buy was a 6 lb hen that I have in the oven right now for 65 cents a lb. I am foregoing eating out with the kids tonight and I am fixing stuffing and potatoes and gravy to go with that. OOPS, I forgot the large can of Grand’s biscuits for 72 cents.Then I headed out to Bergners. I was informed that they opened at 9 today, but lo and behold, when I got there I saw that they didn’t open till 10. This did ruffle my feathers a bit because I had called them yesterday and I was told they were opening at 9. There were a couple of things on sale that I really wanted. I guess I will have to go back this afternoon or in the morning. Not life threatening, just something I thought I wanted.
It got downright chilly last night at 35 degrees, I had a lot of frost to scrape this morning and I am not liking that too much. I am getting used to it though. One thing for sure, I don’t need a new car to sit out in the weather all night.
Wow, this has turned into a rant and I didn’t mean for it to be. As I have said before, I really am quite content with this move.
I hope you all have a very special weekend. Be nice and smile a lot today. Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
Hi Beth,
ReplyDeleteWell we both made it on here, despite the confusion!!
Hope you have a very special weekend too.

34 when I took Frankie to work this morning at 5:30 this morning and a freeze warning posted for overnight tonight. That answers one of the things I've been pondering recently, mow the lawn one more time or winterize the mowers. I guess our grass will remain a little high until the spring thaw:)
ReplyDeleteMy new car sat out and still does..it's OK. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteHi, to Beth, the tree is beautiful. We have little color in the hills this fall. Bye now, Me
ReplyDeleteGlad you partaked of the opening sales. My luck is driving 30+ miles and the sale stuff is gone already. I'll be over for supper! MMMM goodness on yer table tonight!
ReplyDeleteHoping your new store continues to have good specials. Your supper tonight sounds really good. Nothing like home cooking! I may just copy your dinner and make that tomorrow night. Jim loves chicken in any shape or form. Have a good one and good luck getting your stuff at Bergners.
ReplyDeleteNo frost here yet but it will be soon.
ReplyDeleteThough my car has been a model citizen I am planning to buy a new one next year. It will only be the second brand new car I have ever purchased.
Great buy on the chicken!
You don't like the cold weather and me too.
ReplyDeleteas you said time is flying then only hafe of thing done my home etc.

if we can do that we should be a very happy ladys:-)
enjoy shopping!
No frost here yet. Baked chicken and the trimmings, a feast for company.
ReplyDeleteNow that's the kind of store I like. Oh, that supper sounded so good. It really does seem like time is just flying, and at my age I would like it slow down a bit.
ReplyDeleteNo frost here yet Beth but an hour ago we had hailstones teeny ones, not those golf ball one's...It rained hard last night. Yummy dinner sounds good be over soon make room for a little one. :) Hugs
ReplyDeleteYour new store sounds like the store we go to, I love getting the brand names a lot cheaper, domost of my shopping there. We eat chicken a lot...that was a bargin! Hope your weekend is nice..rainy here.
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, just cruising by, trying to catch up with folk. A new store always prompts a flurry of excitement, till they peg their prices just as high as everyone else, or am I a glass half full person? We've got a Lidl opening near me next month, they're a pile them high, sell them cheap store, with no frills, so it will be worth a visit, take care.
ReplyDeleteWow, love the prices at your food Depot, some good deals, hope you got what you wanted. Your move here is doing well for you, even got music, love it and you have your Fav. George Jones singing. Gives a good feeling for your visiting friends. Love ya!
ReplyDeleteWell im ready to catch the first plane out for my leg ,off that chicken but you didnt say what else we were having for afters lol
ReplyDeleteBeth, you won't believe this, just as I was to leave your space my phone rang, was my son and all the while I was talking, I heard your music, kinda like a radio, lol. Good back ground music to be sure, love Country music, thank you.
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by Beth . That tree is unforgetatble.
ReplyDeleteIm listening to your music. Have you heard.

You may like this man. I adore him.
Sounds like some really good deals for you. Is County Market to become a thing of the past, or just in your town? County Market was one of my stops when shopping in Champaign...nearly always found bargains. Was 35 here this (Sat) morning...had a fire in the wood stove.
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, I've finished posting the info on how to stop following other blogs. I hope I made it easy to understand since a lot of people have had a hard time figuring this one out too.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a nice Sunday :)
