Here, There, and Everywhere

Mama and I went grocery shopping yesterday. We hadn't been for a real shopping trip in quite a while, so this one was ginormous (and expensive!). Our first stop was to Nashville Cash and Carry, which, by the way, is definitely a good place to go if you're looking for cheap, but reusable, plastic containers! Then we were on to a slightly frustrating experience at Hobby Lobby (not for groceries though). Insert lunch intermission here. From there we went to Walmart where we spent forever, then we hit Sam's and managed to do that in about a half hour (even though we forgot to use the order-everything-online-first thing!), and then back to Hobby Lobby for a rather less frustrating experience (but again, not grocery-related). After all that, we were finally homeward bound! And exhausted. We ended up spending, between this trip and the quick trip Daddy made Friday, $638.84. Ouch. That brings the total to a rather uncomfortable $94.66. Hopefully we won't need anything for quite a while now though.

Here's what I know that we ate yesterday:

Breakfast: Blueberry muffins

Lunch: Thanks to an endorsement by a friend, Mama and I went to McDougal's Chicken Fingers & Wings for lunch. We got the cheapest batch of wings, and they were really quite good. We got them tossed in the original buffalo sauce and the gold sauce. I liked them both, and the buffalo ones reminded me a lot of Daddy's hot wing sauce - only a bit milder. The gold isn't what to get if you're wanting normal hot wings, but it was surprisingly good, and a nice change of pace. We want to go back and try out some of the other sauces. Mama's intrigued by the lime chipotle sauce's description, whereas I'm curious to see why the honey bee sauce is their best seller. So, yeah, we'll be going back!

Dinner: Beef hash
