This Week’s Shopping (Or Lack Thereof)

There hasn’t been much to report recently, because I haven’t been doing much shopping or cooking. I’ve had a cold for a week and half, and my doctor also started me on a new medication for my knee pain and swelling; the combination of the two things has been exhausting and pretty much killed my appetite. We’ve picked up one or two things from the store, like milk, but no “Real” shopping trips or coupon adventures to speak of. I’ve just been picking away at the food in our pantry, and going through the drive-thru to pick up a McFlurry or two – I don’t know what it is, but when I feel sick, ice cream always makes me feel better. It’s like I’m lactose super-tolerant or something!

I thought I would need to go to the store yesterday, because our fridge was looking so bare. But then this package arrived from FedEx:

El Monterey

I’m going to be writing a product review for El Monterey over on Contest Corner, so they sent me a huge box full of frozen entrées! Free meals, and the only cooking I have to do is press a button on the microwave – I’m pretty sure I could hear angels singing when I opened that box. 😉

Once I start feeling better, I’m looking forward to getting back into my normal routine. So in the meantime, let me live vicariously through you: Tell me in the comments what deals you’ve scored lately!

    So sorry you feel so badly – hope you are doing better soon.
    I totally love this line: “I’m pretty sure I could hear angels singing when I opened that box.”
