Well well well.. It has been some time since I have wrote on this blog.  I have been busy with Stephen and getting things ready for the baby.  We have finally got everything but a diaper bag and swing for Nadia.   
I have been making a lot of really simple dinners due to that it hurts my feet to stand in front of the stove for a long period of time.  I have ,however, got some really nice corn and green beans from the Farmers Market here on the West side of Milwaukee where we live.  I have stocked up on it and froze it all to use during the winter time so I do not have to buy veggies like corn and green beans during the winter time.  It will save a little bit of money.  Not much but a little.  Little bits of savings here and there do go a long way in the end.

Oh I forgot to mention that we also got some blueberries because they were looking really good at the Farmers Market as well.  I washed them and let them dry completely and then frozen them.  I will be making Blueberry muffins, pancakes, etc.. I love blueberries.  mmmmmmmm

Along with the savings we have to try different kinds of foods that we would not usually buy that are on sale.  Our local grocery store had these frozen single breaded chicken breast on sale in the frozen section and I made them one night.  They have like butter and chives in the middle of them.. I got those and I also got the kind that have Cheddar and broccoli in the middle of it.  All in all they were ok,  Not the greatest but they were alright.  I might have cooked them a little to much but I am weird when it comes to chicken.  I want to make sure its done, done.  hah




With the chicken i made fried taters (potatoes) and had a nice spinach and romaine salad with it.  It was a pretty nice dinner.  It satisfied me and Stephen.  He ate it and liked it, so i guess that is a win right there. 
Well I will more then likely start cooking a lot more since that its starting to get cooler and I can run the oven and stove more often now. 
Well I hope that everyone has a great Labor Day!
