We've been waiting for this day to finally come.....


Ever since we found out that a Dunkin Donuts was being built near our house, Lucas has been begging to go there. He asks constantly to drive by and see if the "donut" store is open yet. Well today is opening day! I had plans on taking the kids out after lunch for a special treat, but when it started to downpour as we were leaving the gym, I figured the drive thru would suffice. After placing my order for 3 donuts, I didn't want Matt to feel left out, they asked if I wanted a free medium coffee. Did you say FREE? Oh yes, they did! Ahhh, who can beat free coffee. The perfect fix on this rainy day.

Have I mentioned yet that I have a slight coffee addiction?

If you're in Anderson, stop by the Hwy 81 DD and get yourself some yummy goodness.


Lucas wanted one with sprinkles! He's still wearing that chocolate frosting on his hands, face, and shirt, but I figured that's part of the magic. Lucas's love of donuts must be genetic - his Grandma is crazy about them! Give my mom a krispy kreme doughnut and a diet coke and she's happy!

Ava slept through all of the fun. Poor girl didn't know what she was missing.

Baby steps

Guess what? I'm taking steps today to get just a little closer to my dream. We're off to the gym in a little bit to keep working towards losing those 38 pounds. I'm also working on a plan to sell specialty homemade cheesecakes during the holidays. Doing something I love and making some extra money for the people I love. Pretty great stuff!

Special K

I have developed a rather fond relationship with Kellogg's Special K Vanilla Almond. Low in fat (only 1.5 g) and made with whole grains, I eat this tasty treat as a meal and a snack. I'm eating some right now. Special thanks to Kat for introducing me to this delightful cereal. Our local Ingles has been running it on sale this past week, 2 for $4, so I stocked up. The milk is even on sale too, 2 for $5, making this treat yummy and affordable. Sweet, crispy flakes and crunchy almonds. What more could a girl ask for. By the way, you should go to Ingles. Everything is on sale. I picked up some lean ground beef today for $1.38 per pound. Now that's good for the budget. Low prices + good food = happy housewife

Let's go shopping at Aldi's!

If you're shopping at Aldi's this week, I recommend that you stock up on Eggs and Milk! Seriously, a dozen eggs for $1.09 and Milk for $2.19! The price of beef may have gone up, but I'm loving the other staples we get from a cow! I bought 4 dozen eggs this week. Overkill for sure, but when our family eats eggs, we usually eat 7 in one setting! Eggs and toast are a staple breakfast in our house - we eat that at least 4 times a week! It's fast and filling and cheap! If you're looking for something more exciting to do with your eggs, try making a breakfast casserole! I love this casserole from Ree, the Pioneer Woman. Everything she makes is delightful, but this recipe is especially great! As with most recipes, I tweaked it a bit to fit our tastes. For all of his perfect aspects, my handsome husband does not eat mushrooms. This could have been a deal breaker for me 13 years ago, but then I saw his drummer toned legs and I decided to look past his misjudgment! No ...
