Another week, another report! Here’s my produce.
And the rest of my groceries.
The cow from the local farm has milk now, so I got two gallons, one for yogurt and one for other purposes. I only felt like dragging one out of the fridge for a picture though. The glass jars are kind of heavy, and I didn’t want to risk dropping one (I’ve done that before…it broke and spilled milk all over my kitchen floor!).
My Aldi total this week was $54.97, and at Weis, I spent $27.05. That’s $82.02, which would be great except that I spent $8 on those two gallons of milk. Soo, I’m at $90.02.
I bet I can make that up next week, though, by spending $70. I’m going to at least try.

Dana, Julia is right! The potato is for the deep dish pizza. We had it this past Friday, so it was on the menu I posted last week.
Jessie, I do brew tea sometimes, but I was feeling lazy. lol
Cate, so glad the bread was good!
Battra, we wash the jars in the dishwasher and then return them to the farm where they get filled again. It's a completely no-garbage-produced process, which is awesome. So, my yogurt produces no trash either...the milk comes in glass jars which get reused and I cook and store my yogurt in glass jars, which I reuse.

So after the jars of milk are empty do you reuse them or recycle them?
Oh and watch for spiders in your bananas.

I just wanted to tell you that I tried your whole wheat bread recipe the other day, and it was AWESOME. My husband and I both loved it. We'll never buy sandwich bread again!

I am surprised to see that you purchase tea already brewed! Have you considered brewing it at home yourself? You can save a lot of money that way! I know we do - being a Georgia girl our family goes through a lot of sweet tea! ^_^

I have cornmeal! It's so cheap! I am going to definitely try this. All I have made so far is corn bread...I'm strangely excited about corn meal right now!
