    Trying to budget while still enjoying the little things, I have a particular brand of chocolate milk(not expensive, not cheapest) that I try to keep in the fridge to decompress on at the end of the day. I can’t believe how much potatoes are, avocado are somehow cheaper per unit than potatoes?? It’s to the point that I’ve questioned if making my own fries are worth it compared to buying frozen, but they do taste so much better home made. I’ve stopped buying all meat and most cheeses from anywhere but Costco, when did pork become 9$ per pound minimum?? That’s insane to my 90s brain.

    Still love my canned chick peas for hummus making! I love that they sell guacamole and hummus right next to the ingredients which are cheaper.

    Also sumo’s are back in season, if you’re at all a fan of citrus, try the best citrus to ever grace your stores floor. Is it expensive? Yes, is it worth it? Absolutely.

      My mom is pretty into chocolate milk on cereal and she will only go with one brand… it’s just whatever they have at Kroger, but nothing else will do.

      I was buying all of my produce at Costco for a while and thought it was great. They’re good for potatoes! Last I checked, anyway… I moved and the nearest Costco is 50 miles away which isn’t much fun. I miss the cheap tofu and the big bags of Power Greens, also that things like potatoes cost 25% less.

      I’ll have to check out the sumos… also find my citrus juicer! We’ve been getting some weird oranges that are pink inside… not blood oranges, just pink. Also some good mangoes lately.
