We are going shopping tonight after work, I think we will go to Costco and whatever we cannot get at Costco will determine where else we need to go. I need to re stock on some spices now that most of my Christmas cooking is done. I still need to make:
Peach Butter
Apple Butter
Chocolate Butter
Honey Cinnamon Butter
The last 2 are actually butter based and do not involve any cooking so I will probably do those one night after work. I might also if I get home on time tomorrow make the Peach Butter, I cheated and bought frozen peaches which will take a little longer to cook down but way less time on the prep as there will be no peeling and chopping.
I was cleaning up the stock pile on the weekend and discovered we are running low on a few things, I need to watch for Salsa to go on sale and we need more Maple Syrup. The Maple Syrup kind of annoyed me as obviously someone has been using it and not telling me as we have 4 bottles and when I went down yesterday we only had 1 left which has now been opened. Another pet peeve of mine, I do not care if you use or eat it, but let me know as literally a couple weeks ago Maple Syrup was on sale and I when I saw it went no we do not need any we still have tons in the basement.
I am thinking over Shut down I might go down and reorganize a bit. I notice ever year some of our food choices change a bit, some things we eat less of, other things become a bigger part of our diet so I will reorganize based on this as some sections are over flowing right now. Good news is from what I can see other than a few things maybe 5 things (2 cans of evaporated milk, 2 cans of eagle brand and there was 1 other thing I saw) there is not a lot that expired on us.
I really want to try to get a bunch of meal prep done over shut down so if something like last night happen with my legs there is something quick and easy I can pull out and just heat up.
Good news is my legs are not really hurting today but I am being careful, trying now to walk around too much as we have to go out tonight and I do not want to irritate them.
Alright well time to get back to work as I need to leave early for an offsite meeting. Have a wonderful day everyone.
