What we bought, spent and ate this week

Hello Dear Reader,

Well, that week went quickly, the weeks are zipping by lately. Do you find the weeks just fly by or do they grind slowly for you? I know the longest day of the week has to be Friday, and I am sure the shortest will be this coming Monday, which is a public holiday for Queen Elizabeths' Birthday. We have a lot to do over this long weekend as our Son and his beautiful Partner will be moving in next door, to move into my late MIL's home.

They have great plans to renovate the home to make it more modern and have already sourced a builder who will do the work for them. The home will look completely different when they have finished. It is very livable the way it is and they will just do a bit at a time. I am so excited for them both to start this new chapter of their lives.

I have hit the grocery shops, twice again, this past week looking for marked down produce, I found some great bargains and they will go towards next week menu. Every little bit is a saving.

What we bought

The Aldi Shop

Shopping from Northside Discount Fruit Barn

Markdowns from Woolworths


Markdowns from Coles

What we spent
Aldi-$56.05
Northside Discount Fruit Barn-$36.70
Woolworths-$17.15
Coles-7.92

TOTAL-$117.82-YESSS!
What we ate

  Friday-Leftover Tuscan Meatballs with egg noodles

Saturday-Spinach, Bacon and Feta Stuffed Mushrooms

Sunday and Wednesday-Slow Roasted BBQ Pork and Coleslaw burgers

Monday-Tempura Whiting with steamed Basmati rice and Choy Sum

Tuesday-Roast Chicken with roasted potato, pumpkin and steamed broccolini

Thursday-Stir Fried Kalettes with Chorizo and Mushrooms over Mashed Sweet Potato

With our son and partner now moving next door, I think you will see lots more "leftover" meals on our weekly menu. It will certainly be strange not to have to cook every single night. So a new chapter in our lives has begun. #emptynesters😉

Have a lovely day,
💗Fi
