We are going to have our usual week-end. Farmers market and groceries stores. It takes 3 or 4 grocery
stores to get what we want, the quality we want too!!! How about you??? Do you go to the store and bring home what they have to offer or are you picky and go to many stores to find the quality you want???
Hope you will tell me what you have in store for this week-end. I also hope hope you have a fun and loving time ahead!!
Love coming your way, Zoie & Fern
We don't buy too much from the grocery.. milk and other dairy things.. Bread and buns...in the summer only... home baked in the other seasons.
ReplyDeleteYes, keep as much money in your city as possible........ GOOD!!!
DeleteWe go to one grocery store to get everything but sometimes we go to a farm stand to get local farm fresh items such as eggs. We like going to the farm stands too because local bakeries bring in their goods daily and we like to support local businesses because they are competing with big chain grocery stores.
ReplyDeleteA-men April!!! We always try to buy as much as possible that is home grown. Support the local small businesses b/c Tom is in business for himself and is a small business man, so we try hard to spend every dime we can that stats in the city!!
ReplyDeleteWe usually pick up our stuff from the market. We aren't so much into cooking. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Fern!
I cook all the time. make soup every week at least once, sometimes 2 times. Cook for Zoie and for the outside critters too!!!
ReplyDeleteWe always buy our meat from the local butcher who has his own farm and livestock. he has the best meat I have ever tasted. Also try to buy other local produce, not soemthing that has come from the other side of the world!! Have agreat weekend, Fern xox
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish we could buy our meat from a local farmer!!!!
DeleteI'm where you are, Fern. We shop the Farmers Market and a couple of grocery stores for the items we need.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad about the mosquitoes. I have such a reaction that I try to avoid them, if possible, but that doesn't always happen.
Oh, and the last couple of years, we've bought a share of Alaskan salmon from a family that fishes up there. It's sooooo good. And our meat is all local and small farmed.
ReplyDeleteI didn't use to have a reaction from the mosquito bit but I DO NOW!!!!! I guess it is b/c I have been bit so much in the last month!!!
DeleteMom grocery shops at the grocery store for most things but we have our vege market for yummy breads and fresh fruits and veges, Fern.
ReplyDeleteThere are never enough hours in the week to get everything done *sigh*
Love ya lots,
Mitch and Molly
You said that right Sue!!!! Never enough time!!!! We are glad you have a market to get good fresh things !!
DeleteHi Fern, my dad does the shopping so that he can determine what he eats. Mostly we shop at a local grocery store along with a nearby vegetable and fruit market. My peeps are always busy so there never seems to be enough time but they make time for us. My dad's in Toronto right now. He says it's really hot and humid> There's also some flies that keep buzzing around his head and there's mosquitoes too.
ReplyDeleteMosquitoes all the way up in Toronto??????
DeleteWOW!!!!! They are the worse this year then they have ever been!!!!! We can't walk much out side!!! They are so bad!!!
It pays you back to buy the fresh vegs and fruits. You feel better!!
M hasn't been to the Farmers Market at all yet this year. She can't go to the one downtown anymore as there is too much walking and too many people to take her walker. She hopes she remembers this coming Monday to go to a smaller one at the local mall. There are about 8 vendors there so you can have a variety of things.
ReplyDeleteI hope M does too!!! People would take her walked????????????? Oh that is awful!!!
