Yes, I entered a contest that a grocery store here in town put on. Can you believe it?? I never win any thing. In the sale flyer it told about the contest and I thought I would have a change to win.
They wanted you to tell them about one of your first meals as a new bride . Well this was not my first meal by a way but it was my first meal in an new apartment in Miami.
My Mother was not a cook so I had no training!!!!!! I wanted to cook a meatloaf for dinner and I didn't know how. I didn't have any books to look in so I went to the phone and called a number that was in the phone book. A woman answered and I said Hey, you don't know me but I am a new bride and want to make a meatloaf tonight for dinner, would you please tell me how you make one???
She laughed and said she would. She and I talked probably 30 minutes and she told me just how she made hers and I made one that night and it was very good. I have made them that same way ever since!!
This grocery store is one of two we have in town that is about 80% organic. We do have another that is 100% organic but it wasn't having the contest. We are so happy about this b/c it is not looking good for grocery money this week!! So if the card comes through in time we will have 100.00$ to spend there!!! YAY YAY!!!
More good news my dear friends!! I am out of pain!!!!! YAY!!
Have a good week!!!
Love coming your way, Zoie & Fern
