Flu shot

We had to go into Kingston this morning, after I took the recycling down to the curb,  because I had an appointment for a flu shot. I know. I know. I should have had it in the Fall. I went into Shoppers' Drug Mart specifically for my free shot back in the Fall, but the line was so long, I turned around and left. I got busy because of Christmas and never gave it another thought. My doctor's office called earlier this week to ask when I received it, and I had to admit that I never got one this year. Hence.....

Dairy $17.87

Anyways, since we were in town I decided to go to the Bulk Barn while my hubby went into Service Canada to update his health card. And then I stopped into Giant Tiger to pick up some potatoes and their loss leaders this week. The Becel margarine was 2.98 each 1 lb. container. The 400 gm cheese bars  (about 14 oz.) cost $2.98 each

Protein $5.00

I can make my own meatballs, but why? I thought this was a very good price for 64 meatballs already conveniently made up for me. 

Pantry items $4.84
These cans are for my emergency supply in my pantry. The beans were 77 cents and the soup was 88 cents a tin. 

Produce $2.67
We go through a lot of potatoes each week. 

Snacks $2.54

Now here is something I hardly ever buy....snacks. But at $1.27 I think they were even cheaper than the Bulk Barn. I could have put them under protein or baking supplies; but the truth is, we will eat these as snacks.  

Bulk Barn items $32.90
Back row: whole wheat flour, quick oatmeal and cornmeal
Front row: course sea salt, Parmesan cheese, cheese powder, dried onion and slivered almonds

So when I got home, I took pictures and then put the bulk items in their respective containers. I ate lunch and then went upstairs to put more mud on the taped up seams. I wanted to do some housework today, but it ain't happenin'. Maybe tomorrow. 

Last night I cooked a pork loin, seasoned with peppercorns,  with the last of my potatoes and broccoli. Tonight is leftover night where my Sweetie and I "forage for food in the fridge", but there is lots to choose from, so no cooking for me tonight. 

I called my daughter....no answer. And I called a friend to wish her Happy Birthday, but she wasn't home. So I may go have a wee nap this afternoon.
