Summer Zizzling

Its been a while since I had my last visit to this site. Its been hard to get inspiration from just about anything. My drive to write was nowhere to be found. I'd rather feel the day than write it.

Today, however, is different. Woke up early for our grocery. First, we went to Wel-Farm for our pantry needs, then later on wen to Wal-Mart for the kids stuff.

Just when you thought you have saved something when all of a sudden you found out that you been ripped of. Point of fact today was the rice. Wel-Farm priced it at $15.00, but Wal-Mart sells it at $9.00. The goodnews though was we were able to stick to our budget.

We have tried again for the nth time to use our debit card, instead of the card. We found out that you can really save if you pay in cash. There is a bigger chance for you to really "scan" what you really need. Unlike when you are using your credit card, you don't mind whether the things you had in your cart are necessary things or just unwanted stuff. Plus, its easier for you to swipe the credit card than to discard what you don't need. I hope we can stick to our monthly budget this time.

For the second time, we had bar-b-que and lunch outside. We love our grill. For a hundred bucks less, we can enjoy the sweet aroma of a real grilled liempo and tilapia (not just broiled). Summer is going to be fun this time. I wonder what are we having this time of year if we are still in Ohio.

Thank you, Texas.

ADDICTED TO BAKE

 Couch is not the place for an older person like me to watch tv. It only takes a matter of minutes before I sleep. That was what happened to...
