Today I went on a “Grocery Date” with Will. We drove to Ludington together and then while Will made some farming-related purchases at Lowe’s and Tractor Supply, I shopped the deals at Meijer. I was lured there by the promise of Will’s favorite brand of canned tomatoes (now that I type that out, it sounds weird, but they really are tasty). The bad news is, they were all out of whole tomatoes (devastating!). The good news is, they had plenty of crushed and diced, so I stocked up. We are serious about our canned tomatoes around here. (Probably this is the point where all three readers of this blog die of boredom and abruptly stop reading). Call me crazy, but planning meals, stalking coupons, and hunting down deals at Meijer on my bi-monthly shopping trip is one of my most thrilling activities these days… I give up. I'm crazy.
Besides the amazing canned tomato saga, after Will ran his errands and rejoined me at Meijer, we swung by the cereal aisle and bought a box of Oatmeal Squares as a treat, which we promptly went home and devoured. (If I was actually the tribal hunter I delusionally think I am while grocery shopping, this would be the equivalent of eating the heart and other desirable organs first in celebration of our victory). A successful grocery date that ended with bowls of tasty cereal to munch on as a late-night snack? I’m thankful. :)
