Happy New Year Nancy
Our worlds are still swaying which is really sucking, stairs seem really bad which is horrible since I am doing laundry which means two flights. I am doing well but mom still seems to have her cold. Thanks for asking. We ventured out yesterday because we needed milk that was kind fun. Hoping to be better by the weekend to do a big shop.
Gotta love boys, my step mom is constantly trying to find ways to get the boys to stop eating everything in sight especially when some have special dietary needs and they eat dishes and meals meant for those people.
Amazing meat deals Nancy.
2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,
follow along as tackle day to day life and whatever else 2021 throws at me:

Mrs S-I don't know your son's age but check the number of dairy servings he should have for his age according to the Canada Food Guide and try to limit milk/dairy servings to this amount per day. He can always drink water if he is thirsty and if he is having a growth spurt there are likely less expensive, but still nutritious foods he can fill up on like bread, pasta etc. Buy a big, cheap bag of oatmeal and tell him to help himself. Maybe you can get some marked down bread or bake some( or he can) to cut bread costs too. Review the food guide with him and the costs and like you say charging him from his own earnings for excessive milk consumption might just get his attention! Good luck!

Well today is a pretty lazy day-so far we have taken down the tree, washed one load of clothes and shoveled the snow. Out to a friends for dinner tonight and leftover Chinese food for lunch so that takes care of the meals. The kids had homemade waffles for breakfast and that waffle maker we bought in August has been well used. We have gradually changed the white flour to 50% whole wheat to make them more nutritious. They especially love them with Nutella!

Nancy-it sounds like you need to keep going back to that No Frills. I often get lean ground beef there marked down to $1.00 per lb and if you can spot a good deal then your meat stock will be complete. Great shopping!

When our son was at home, he was a HUGE milk drinker, always was, right from when he was a kid.
Now he's on his own, he still is - and has milk here when he comes over.
I just let it be - he still drank a lot of water, and having milk was better than having pop!
He's also a huge cheese lover - and what's funny is now that he's feeding himself, he's buying what I'd call 'fancy' cheeses - the kind that I would only buy once in a while because they were expensive, but he loves havarti, smoked gouda, etc.
Mind you, now that I think about it it isn't that bad, because he'll make a grilled cheese sandwich with that cheese, in place of meat... so, not really awful!
I love milk and cheese too, but have to limit it because I'm lactose intolerant, and those darned Lactaid pills are pricey - so I have to spread out any meals with dairy.
And, if I accidentally have too much dairy for the pills to counteract, that's no fun.... (like the new poutine I tried to McDonald's - it was good, but too much cheese - I'll have to go back to having BK poutine when I get the urge!)

I wouldn't mind him drinking the milk so much if he left a little for his Dad to have his cereal before he goes to work. ya know. he thinks its a never ending supply.

Happy New Year friends!
Rang in the New Year watching Netflix with DH. It was perfect.
I accidentally left the garage open last night and we had an opportunist burglary…most items we won't miss too much (one tool of my DH's we will have to replace). Not enough to even consider insurance. It could have been much worse, so I am grateful. I hope 2014 brings our "robber" face to face with karma.
I look at the world and people through rose-coloured glasses. I would not even consider going into someone's garage at night if it were left open. I would not even, until now, consider knocking on the door to let them know."There are more important things--friendship and bravery...."
