    Can I just say, you are so amazing for thinking of options for your father-in-law. As someone who also has medical dietary restrictions (Celiac Disease), having people think/try to accommodate me, means the world to me. I don’t ever expect it, but it has often brought tears to my eyes. You are so wonderful for being so thoughtful. ❤

      My closest friend has coeliac. I was shopping last week and gluten free pasta was on sale, so I picked up half a dozen bags for her. I always do this because the gluten free stuff is so expensive, and she only has a part time job and two kids. I can't eat sugar because it triggers my auto immune issues, so she does the same for me if she sees something that I use on a regular basis that is otherwise expensive, but the sugar free options aren't nearly as expensive as the gluten free options.

They have an actual butcher and the prices are phenomenal!! If I want ALDIs, Lidal or Walmart I have to travel 45 miles. I’m guessing $250???? Thanks for the Chandler Bing clip!!!

    Christine you can easily make almond milk at home - I never buy almond or oat milk - it's so easy - soak 1 cup almonds overnight, rinse and then blend with 3 cups of water - put it through a nut milk bag - keeps for 7 days in the fridge in a jar - just shake it before use. Oat milk is even easier no soaking just blend 1 cup of oats with 3 cups of water - put through a nut milk bag and again into a jar for up to 7 days in the fridge. Tastes amazing nothing like store bought

    I am a frequent Costco shopper. I guessed somewhere between $300-$350 on that cart. I could have been more accurate, but I wasn't sure about the snacks. After years of Costco shopping, I have a gut feeling when it is time to stop (for me that is around $250 these days). I also like your trick of buying the turkey and ham whole (not sliced). It is so much less expensive and better too.

My father-in-law has diabetes. Kale and pumpkin are good fall ingredients so that’s convenient. And sweet potatoes. I’ll just reduce sugar in any recipe I can, and go low carb where possible. Of course we’ll get a couple Diet Pepsis and diet Dr Peppers for their visit. 😁

    Shred up that bag of Zucchini and squash, add 1/4 cup of your seasoning mix and 1 box of Jiffy muffin mix for a great casserole. Use 1/2 of the liquid listed on the box directions. You'll need to use your hands to blend it all. It will seem dry and skimpy but don't worry. The cornbread mixture is a binder. For gardeners, it's 2 lbs of squashes . It's OK to use less squash: the recipe will come out more cakelike rather than like a pudding

    That salad at the end of you video looked delicious......you made me hungry😊 I've made green chile chicken burritos, there baking as I watch your video.
    I truly am happy I found your vlog. Question, do you prefer Sams Club over Costco? I ask because Sams is about 45 minutes away, and Costco is 1 hour and 20 minutes away from me. To me Costco costs more. I wish we had a HEB, Kroger, or Fred Meyer here. We have Walmart in the next town, it's a small one and usually doesn't carry 1/2 of what I shop for.
    Have a good evening!
