I can't stand grocery shopping). Everyone in the entire world that you know will be there when you look your worst, and then find you to chat while you are trying to hide in the ethnic food isle. It's like the showing up naked to your high school reunion dream, only it's real life and you have raggedy clothes on and your hair is a mess. er uh, well, you get it. Good luck to you. I'll pray for your sanity!<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5745814378416915364.post-16415569164894936212015-10-19T18:20:06.972-07:002015-10-19T18:20:06.972-07:00who is Cathy? would it be Cathy Paparella?who is Cathy? would it be Cathy Paparella?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5745814378416915364.post-1434510595748022352015-10-19T12:11:44.203-07:002015-10-19T12:11:44.203-07:00I live alone and not being a cook, I try to keep i...I live alone and not being a cook, I try to keep it simple. <br /><br />For example, for supper, I set the oven at 425 degrees for Giant Eagle fish (cod, haddock, perch, in four-packs in the freezer near the deli area & not much fat) or I use Morning Star brand frozen patties (Mediterranean Chickpea). I microwave for 5 minutes Idaho or Golden potatoes and place them in the oven with the fish. I include an oven-safe dish of cut up gala apple slices and also a dish of canned vegetables with water drained, such as corn, mixed veggies or carrots, or I microwave some frozen vegetables as another side. I set the oven on timer for 25 minutes and go take a shower. The meal is ready when I am done.<br /><br />So all I have to remember is to keep the freezer stocked with fish or Morning Star packages, keep a stock of canned or frozen bags of vegetables, a sack of potatoes in a cool cupboard downstairs and sacks of gala apples in the refrigerator. <br /><br />I also like eggs, so I keep stocked up on eggs with a stash of bread in the freezer for toast; cream cheese and margarine; and jars of coconut oil or olive oil spray to cook the eggs scrambled in the skillet.<br /><br />And I break the routine periodically with frozen entries stashed in the freezer, such as Lean Cuisine, Healthy Choice, or low-fat Michelina's. Also, I stockpile Greek yogurt containers. <br /><br />I buy the more expensive type half gallons of milk (Aldi's) with dates that expire far in the future so that I am not constantly needing to pick up milk. My present milk cartons are dated for use to Nov. 28.<br /><br />I feel better too when I eat this way.Cathy Knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5745814378416915364.post-53113418198696700332015-10-19T07:55:49.005-07:002015-10-19T07:55:49.005-07:00This is my quest!

Wit...This is my quest! <br />To get out of the store! <br />With all of my groceries!<br />In less time, not more! <br />To dream, the impossible dream!

I do my best to avoid the grocery store at all costs, and thanks to an awesome home delivery service offered by one of our local grocery store chains I can order groceries on line and spare myself the agony of tromping through the grocery store with a small pack of children asking for a thousand things. I've found the service to be well worth the $10 I pay to have someone navigate the store and then show up on my porch with all of my groceries. They'll even call me if they don't have exactly what I want to see if I want them to get something else instead.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353696433987975754noreply@blogger.com
