I decided to change up some of the weekend. Instead of shopping, I did the cooking.
Crock pot whole chicken so I could make Nom Nom Paleo's awesome gravy. Easy, but a huge mess getting that gravy ready!
Meatballs using Costco's organic ground beef. They are delicious! Higher fat than I normal buy, but I've never used organic beef.
BACON! To last the holidays. I batch cook the bacon to about 95% done (I like crispy) and freeze to use from Thanksgiving to Christmas brunch. HUGE mess and time saver.
I went to the grocery store and the crowds of people overwhelmed me. No Christmas shopping yesterday. I'm heading out today and that feels like a better choice. I didn't have it in me yesterday.
I have another chicken to cook today (comes in a 2 pack from Costco). Otherwise -- no more cooking. Football is pizza for the family. Meatballs, bacon and chicken are getting frozen.
My big shop list is finished for Monday. Tuesday is prep day. Wednesday is pie day and then TURKEY Day!!
Plan is made, stuff getting done ... I'm feeling loads better. Later gators (dogs bugging to go out again - what else is new??). Later gators.
