Today I spent just over a hundred dollars at a Macey’s case lot sale. I was very happy at the amount of food I got for the cost. It included eight things of oatmeal, a case of applesauce, a case of tomatoes, a large bag of popcorn, various other canned goods, snacks, and regular groceries. I was looking at the oatmeal and thought that one thing (tub, case, tin? not sure of the right word here) would give us breakfast for a few weeks. At $1.50 apiece, that’s quite a bargain. Cereal costs me anywhere from $2-4, and it lasts less than half that length. Really I think the key to saving money on groceries (and staying healthy)  is cooking from scratch and that would include eating oatmeal instead of cereal. My next “I want to cook everything from scratch” project (and yes I have a project like that in my brain) is making corn dogs. Joe requested them.

My gardening business is taking off. Not that I’m wildly succesfull, but I have as many clients as I want. I love my work too.

This morning I was reading my scriptures and I had an insight into my life. I realized that instead of trying to figure out who I am and why I do things, I should try to find out who the Lord wants me to be.

That’s all.
