Fresh & Healthy: Fall Harvest – Community Supported Agriculture (Week 2)
We are enjoying our Fall Harvest with our Local Farm with Community Supported Agriculture program. The Fall harvest is 10 weeks long through our farm.

Our family is doing a half share for this harvest.

Living on a Budget: Groceries $40 for 4
It was a blast having the girls shop with me and to have extra time together last week, but I must say I am glad to have Jake back. I did manage to keep myself very busy while he was awhile so the week flew by quickly. I am back to my “normal” schedule this week. Here is my weekly update on our Groceries $40 for 4.
Ingles Groceries:- $16.10 at Ingles for 4 gallons of Pet Milk (marked down to $1 each), 2 Peach Tea, 1 Nectarine Juice, 1 bag Bananas, 1 container Tomatoes, 1 container Oranges / Grapefruits, 1 loaf Bread, 1 bag Snow peas, and 1 container Pork Filets, (I was excited when the “milk” man marked down the already marked down milk to $1.00 each, I got 4 gallons and froze three of them when I got home. Everything I bought this week at Ingles was on sale, marked down or on clearance including the produce, meat and milk!)
Save-A-Lot |RiteAid Groceries:- $11.59 at Save-A-Lot | RiteAid for 24 pack Bottle Water, 1 pack Brown and Serve Rolls (12 count), 1 Cheddar Chex Mix, 1 box Toast Em Strawberry, 1 package Deli Ham, 1 package Roast Beef, 1 package Chicken Breast, 1 package Carrots (2 pounds), and 2 cans Pillsbury Biscuits. (All the items purchased were on sale this week, for more information and coupon match-ups go to our weeklySave-A-Lot page)
BiLo Groceries:- $5.51 at BiLo for 1 bag Southern Home Wavy Potato Chips and 1 gallon Milk (BiLo still has the best prices on milk on this side of town. I picked up the chips for a snack for our Community Group. Plus save $0.05 per bag for bringing my reusable bags.)
CVS Groceries:- $0.75 at CVS for 4 bags Flava Puff Nacho, 1 bag Flava Puff Hot Party Mix, and 6 canisters Doritos Nacho Cheese Chips (I was able to get ALL of these items marked down on clearance for 75% to 90% off plus I used a $2.00 ECB coupon! I should be good on chips for lunches the next couple weeks.)
This week I spent $33.95 on groceries. Even though I was a little under on my budgeted amount for the week I was able to stock up on several items. Thankfully I had extra wiggle room this week to help on future grocery purchases. I hope that next week is an even better week and we can come under budget. I was THRILLED to get milk for $1.00 a gallon (milk averages between $3 to $4 and this brand is close to $6 per gallon normally. Thankful for an opportunity to stock up on several other items!
It is my goal to give you regular updates on this budget section so you can celebrate the good weeks with me and thump me on the bad weeks! As always you are welcomed to join the journey with me. I would love to hear your story and how you are doing too. The purpose of our family doing this it to watch our grocery spending while allowing us to feed our family, enjoy life, share with others, and yet stay on track with our budget.
Living on a Budget is a series of ways our family uses a budget to help keep us accountable with our finances. Life doesn’t always go as planned. We have used some of the ideas I will be sharing for years while others are ones we are just starting to implement as we continue finding ways to be creative and have fun with what we have been given. Having a plan in place allows us the freedom to be smart with what we have been given, get more creative when it is a tight (week, month, year or a season) and when necessary live a much more simplified life. A budget helps us stay on track so we have more opportunities to enjoy the many blessings we have been given as well as share what we have with others. There is so much more to life than having all the stuff. We may not have the newest or greatest items in our house, we drive used cars, and wear hand-me-down clothing…..however, if our family is taken care of and have love for each other and others we have more than all the riches in the world.
Recipes: Easy Steak Marinade
Every once in awhile we get a good deal on steak or as I am going through the freezer I run across a steak that begs to be eaten. One of the best ways to get a great price on steak is buy a roast that has been marked down and slice it into steaks. You can choose to make the steaks as thick or thin as you want. Life with twins, work, and all the other activities have a way of keeping us busy so we have discovered the easiest steak marinade that tastes amazing. No mixing, stirring, measuring or anything other than pouring to make your steak marinade. It’s easy and delicious. Several guests have asked for our recipe and they are surprised when we show them what we use because it really is that simple.
Easy Steak Marinade:
- 1/2 to 1 cup Italian Salad Dressing
- Steak
Unwrap the steaks, poke holes into the meat with a fork on both sides. Take the bottle of Italian Salad Dressing from the fridge and pour approximately 1/2 cup to 1 cup on the steaks. The longer you allow it to marinade the more the flavor soaks in but you can even do it just for a few minutes on either side while you chop of veggies to go on the grill with it. Put the steak on the grill and cook it how you like it!
Sometimes I will pull the steak out and put the marinade on first thing the morning other days I am putting it on moments before it hits the grill. Either way is delicious and super easy. We often use Italian Salad Dressing mixed with Chicken or Fresh Vegetables as well. Thankfully South Carolina is still warm this time of year so we are enjoying a few more weeks of grilling season! Once Winter hits we add a little of the Italian Dressing to the crockpot chicken or beef and it tastes great! We usually pick up our Italian Salad Dressing at the Sav-Mor Sidewalk Box Sale for $0.05 to $0.15 per bottle or use coupons when we can get it for a great price.
Life’s Little Hiccups: Mint Chocolate S’mores Brownies
Life doesn’t always go exactly as we plan. Even though I try to make sure the schedule allows for plenty of time with my family, friends, church, work, household duties, and the many other activities in life that doesn’t mean everything will go smoothly. The reason I call it Life’s Little Hiccups is because after the “stress” of the moment I can look back at the event and usually laugh. Yes, it was frustrating to ruin something or that life didn’t go as planned but in light of all the other problems in life this is pretty small. I have discovered that some of these crazy times make the BEST memories for the family. How I react and recover from Life’s Little Hiccups speaks volumes into the hearts of my children. Getting mad or frustrated will not solve the problem and often times there is a creative or easy solution if I just relax, think, and try again.
It was a Sunday and I had been up since 4 am to take Jake to the airport for a work conference. The girls and I went to the early service at church then came home and did some activities around the house, ate lunch, and worked on cleaning the garage (as a surprise for Daddy). I think we had a little bit more fun cleaning the garage than is normal for most people because we had a blast cleaning, talking, laughing, giggling, and telling stories. Before I knew it the afternoon had flown by and it was time for us to get ready for Community Group and Awana.
I was in charge of making the desert for Community Group so the girls and I decided to make Mint Chocolate Smore’s Brownies to share (Jake is not a big “mint” person so it was something special that just us girls enjoy). I put together the brownies, popped them into the oven, and began working with the girls on their verses for Awana. After wrapping up several sections in their books I decided I should probably get ready. As I was brushing my teeth Brina comes into the bedroom and says “Mom, it smells good in the kitchen but it looks a little cloudy.” Oh no! The BROWNIES! Well as you can see from the picture above they didn’t turn out as I had hoped. On the way to Community Group after dropping off the girls at Awana I ran by the grocery store and picked up a cake to share.
When we got home from the events that evening as we were getting out of the van and Brina says “Mom, it smells good…..like when we burn marshmallows around the fire.” Even with several windows open the smell had made it to the garage. The good news though is burnt marshmallows really do have a great smell to them! One of the many lessons I learned with this “little hiccup” was that stuff will happen (despite my best efforts), it’s not ideal but my reaction and how I handle the situation sets an example for my girls. After everything we did together that day do you know what their FAVORITE story to tell everyone was? Yes, the story about how we burnt the Mint Chocolate Smore’s Brownies.
After removing the layer of burnt marshmallows off the top we were able to eat most of the middle pieces of the brownies (see picture below). The girls took the brownies to school and told their friends about the brownie adventure they had with Mom over the weekend. Now we laugh about how silly the whole situation was and that we all managed to not hear the timer go off. I am thankful that we can look at the hiccups and count our blessings for the teachable moments that became funny memories we can share together.

Living on a Budget: Groceries $40 for 4
It was a “girls week” at our house with Jake being gone to California. One of the “special activities” the girls requested to do for our girls week together was to go grocery shopping with Mommy, makes me smile! They had a blast although I bought more then was on my list. Guess it is okay to splurge a little on the kids especially if they are on their best behavior while Daddy is away. Here is my weekly update on our Groceries $40 for 4.
Walmart Groceries:- $8.29 at Walmart for 2 Oscar Mayer Lunchables, 1 Simply Kraft Sour Cream, 1 bag Great Value English Muffins, 1 bag sandwich Bread, 3 boxes General Mills Cocoa Puffs Cereal (I was able to get several of these items marked down – bread, priced matched – Lunchables, or on clearance – Cereal, it was $1.00 per box on clearance!)
BiLo Groceries:
- $12.41 at BiLo for 1 bag Wonka Splashberries Gummies, 1 bag Wonka Puckeroom Gummies, 1 can Del Monte Stewed Tomatoes, 1 can Contadina Tomato Paste, 1 can Hunts Tomato Sauce, 1 can Hunts Diced Tomatoes with Jalapenos, 1 box Good & Fruity, 1 gallon Milk, 1 container Southern Home Sour Cream, and 1 pound Strawberries (I went in for milk…….as you can see the girls found a couple extra items which were marked down at closeout prices. Everything, other than the milk, was marked down on clearance including the fresh strawberries. The girls know that the “purple” tags in BiLo mean closeout prices so we better at least look at it! I used reusable bags to get a 5 cent per bag credit. My total before savings was $44.10 minus $31.69 in savings making it $12.41 for that trip and without using any coupons! Love the closeout deals!)
Ingles Groceries:
- $5.48 at Ingles (YIKES!!!) I know I spent almost $6.00 on this amazing 4 cake sampler this week. WHY you ask!? Those in my church’s Community Group already know the answer but for the ones who want to know why I would spend that much on a dessert I will share a little insight into my crazy life with you. I was up at 4 am on Sunday morning to take my sweet husband to the airport, went to church, ate lunch with the girls, did some activities around the house (probably should have taken a nap instead), made the dessert for Community Group that night then I started helping the girls with their Awana lessons (completely forgetting about the Mint Chocolate Chip Smore’s Brownies in the oven). After awhile Brina went to get a drink from the kitchen and when she came back she said “Mom, it smells really good in the kitchen but it is a little cloudy.” My immediate response “THE BROWNIES!” Needless to say they were past presentable and eatable from the looks of it too at that point. So on my way past Ingles after dropping the girls off at Awana I splurged on this cake. It was delicious and I am thankful for the extra wiggle room in my grocery budget this week, but would like to not make a habit of these extra splurges. Thank goodness for grocery budgets and having wiggle room for emergencies no matter how big or small. (FYI: this cake was on sale this week too, normally it is $6.48 so even though it was an emergency I was still able to save a little bit) Note to future self: When your already running on fumes focus on one task at a time!
This week I spent $26.18 on groceries. Even though I was a little under on my budgeted amount for the week I was able to stock up on several items. Thankfully I had extra wiggle room this week to cover the expense of my multitasking mistake (see Ingles grocery splurge above). I hope that next week is an even better week and we can come under budget.
It is my goal to give you regular updates on this budget section so you can celebrate the good weeks with me and thump me on the bad weeks! As always you are welcomed to join the journey with me. I would love to hear your story and how you are doing too. The purpose of our family doing this it to watch our grocery spending while allowing us to feed our family, enjoy life, share with others, and yet stay on track with our budget.

Recipe: Whole Roasted Chicken
As I was going through the deep freezer earlier this week I pulled out a whole chicken that was purchased a couple months ago on sale. The chicken was over 4 pounds and I was able to get it marked down for $1.37. I love being able to get meat at a great price especially when the meat can be used for multiple meals. The chicken came out juicy, tasty, and delicious! The girls even ate several pieces for dinner. There was plenty of chicken leftover for another meal plus a few more pieces to make chicken salad sandwiches.
Whole Roasted Chicken:
- 1 (3 to 4 pound) Whole Chicken
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Poultry Seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon minced Onion
- 6 tablespoons Butter or Margarine
Preheat oven or roaster oven to 350 degrees
Remove giblets from the inside of the chicken and place the chicken in a roasting pan or pyrex dish.
Mix mayonnaise and poultry seasoning together (if you do not have poultry seasoning you can use Onion Powder, Salt and Pepper). Spread the mayonnaise mixture all over the outside of the chicken.
Put 3 tablespoons of butter and minced onion inside the cavity of the chicken
Slice the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter or margarine and place over the outside of the chicken.
Bake the chicken uncovered for 1 hour 15 minutes. (The chicken should be 180 degrees internally.)
Remove chicken from heat, baste with the juice in the pan from baking, and cover with aluminum foil for 30 minutes prior to carving.

Fresh & Healthy: Sharing the Garden Goodies
We have been blessed with a wonderful garden this summer. It was a great learning experience for the girls. They enjoyed planting, watering, picking, washing, eating, and giving away the produce. The weed pulling wasn’t a highlight for them but they did pitch in and help a few times. I am thankful for how well the vegetables and fruit produced.
We recently replanted the garden for Fall Harvest so we are in between stages right now. The tomatoes are slowing down but still producing a few. Our four okra plants have been consistently producing as well. The above basket was one that we were able to give to several people at Jake’s work. It has been a tremendous blessing being able to share the garden vegetables with others.
Did you grow a garden? What produce did you have in your garden?
