I'm back to hamburger buns, with two loaves left.
I ate the last of my mixed nuts. I hate having to eat all the ones that don't taste good. I try to eat them first.

Now I'd better get new loaves of bread, on sale or not.
I start eating Chex Mix tomorrow.

I got a loaf of bread but still none on sale, so next week I need another, regardless.
I didn't look at the can of soup before I emptied it. Beef soup on a Tuesday is bad since the pot, the bowl and what I use to put it in the bowl will all wait until Friday to be washed. As long as I am careful cleaning it up, that's not a problem. Chicken soup can be worse. But last week it was cold enough for me to want beef soup.

Last loaf of bread open. I absolutely must buy one this week.
I need to get cabbage or slaw before next week too.
Chex Mix is too spicy and makes my fingers burn. They're already dry. I don't know if there is a less spicy version I need to look for next time.

I have my jelly beans for this Easter. I need to finish my Fudge Stripes first, but that will be my next Saturday treat. I can start with the black and white ones on any Sunday.
I'm going to run out of bread if I don't get it tomorrow but I'm feeling better. At least I hope I can't give anything to someone else, but a mask and social distancing may be enough.

I got bread and opened the new loaf yesterday. Still have to remember it this week, sale or not. But where I get points if it's on sale, it might be on sale at two different stores and I can get four.
I finished the Chex in the Chex Mix but that means I still have the pretzels and other less desirable items to finish.
No jelly beans yet and I haven't filled my cookie jar either. That has to happen today.
Not the Fudge Stripes. That's a different jar. And that's not really a Saturday treat.

Once again, a sale sign put in the wrong place. This time I asked someone to confirm the bread was on sale, believing the misplaced signs would be removed. Nope, I got the bread on sale. Not at the price it said, but I have the bread I like. I should finish the older bread or it will go bad.

I started eating black and white jelly beans because I didn't have enough Fudge Stripes.

My bread was actually on sale but I just got one, since if I get too many it will likely go bad by the time I get around to eating it.

I thought I posted here when I had to buy bread that I don't usually get because it was on sale, but I didn't post here. So what happened was three loaves of a different bread were on sale for $5. I didn't notice that it was also a different brand, but someone had put the signs in front of both the same type of bread and my usual type. Had I gotten my usual type, I wouldn't have had to spend three weeks eating the other type. Now I've finished all three loaves. However, when I got those loaves and I went out to the car, I decided I had better check to see why my total was higher than I expected. I got nothing off buying those three loaves. I showed someone and the person checked the signs and brought them back and threw them away, and gave me the sale price anyway. I used the cash I was given to pay for gas and it must have been on the gas price thread where I posted.

I have not finished all three loaves. Somehow I saw another one. So I'll start on that one this weekend.

I found black and white jelly beans I hadn't eaten. I hate that. I get rid of those things first. Also, there weren't enough pink ones. I know it's a store brand but there needs to be a balance. I don't know what flavor pink ones are.

Cadbury and Reese's eggs were on sale. I ate both at once. They're so good but they don't last long enough. Also, I didn't see the caramel version.

Four loaves of my usual bread left, plus one loaf of bread that I got on sale and don't plan to ever get again.
I just finished a loaf of that bread that was on sale and the first few days, I did not feel good. It may have been the bread. It may have partly been new allergy medication. I should always eat enough and soon enough when taking that stuff. It wasn't really new but just a different store's store brand but I sure felt different. And then I felt really bad.

Oops. Add to that the loaf I was eating. I can only hope I'll get them all finished without losing any to mold.

I finished the bread I got on sale with no problem, and found my usual bread on sale and got two loaves. Now I just hope I get through the remaining two loaves I already had before I go to the mountains.

No such luck. The last loaf is moldy. I've managed to removed the bad parts and eat the rest with no apparent problems.

And the moldy bread is gone, and I'm not aware it caused me any problems. I didn't waste much of it.
I also finished milk that tasted bad, and so far no problems. I had to buy extra because I wasn't going to buy any this week.

I have four loaves of bread left, two of which are not the kind I wanted, but that was all they had on sale.
However, I opened the oldest one and it has a real mold problem. I lost two entire slices.

Computer just froze while I was typing.
So now I have to start over.
I lost four or five slices of bread total (for most slices I could use part of it, and the last four I could use half of) but now I am using loaves that did not have a mold problem. Two are left plus what I have left from the one I started earlier this week. In the process of finding them, I happened to look where my new bottle of Lysol was. I wondered why it smelled so good. Turns out it was leaking. There has been a mouse in the general area but I don't think that could be the cause.

I dropped a hot dog and couldn't find it. I found it. At least it didn't get on the bottom of my shoe. But it sure was hard to clean up.
And in the process of looking for something else, I found a fourth loaf of bread.
And in the process of looking for the bread, even though I knew bread wouldn't be in that bag, I found two more bars of that soap I don't like. I was just about to use up the last of the older bars! Well, not really, but when they get that small I can only use them when I clean up and don't want to use "clean" soap.

I now have four loaves of bread not yet opened since I found my bread on sale.

And now it's five. I opened the first of two loaves that aren't my usual type. But I had to take advantage when it was on sale.

I can't find black cherry flavored water. Cherry limeade actually tastes almost as good and doesn't have the problem of tasting "diet" afterward.
Homecoming at my church yesterday. I'm not sure it was safe but some people ate outside and some took theirs home, or at least I heard they did. I didn't stay long but I was the first to get my food.

I'm on my last loaf of bread that isn't the kind I like.
On a cool Wednesday last week I wasn't looking at the can of soup and I ended up with vegetable beef soup, which is harder to clean up and not something good to eat in summer. But it wasn't hard to clean up after all. I just assume they are all chicken noodle.

Now the only bread left is the kind I like. Four loaves of it.
I didn't know what the smell was in my kitchen until I moved the post I used for soup Wednesday. I never dumped out the liquid! Not as easy to clean up as it should have been.

Three loaves now, but the last four slices of the fourth loaf had some mold. The mouse has just picked these up and walked off with them. I know because I saw it dragging one of them. I was hoping it would get caught in the glue trap. I did notice it was eating crumbs off the floor and maybe one of these days it'll be dark and it'll make a mistake.
I can't find store brand apple juice. This was a problem at some stores, but this week it was everywhere. And one store no longer has a place for it.

I'm nearly out of bread. And at the store where I get points, it is not on sale. So I went to my other store and got it.
While I still can't find store brand apple juice, I discovered it is as cheap where I get gas points, provided I buy a larger bottle. I'll refill the samleer bottles or learn to pour from the large one.

No store brand apple juice but in the store where I get points, they have the same size container for the same price. So that's where I will get it.
On the subject of gas points, the man couldn't hear me and I had to get someone to give me my points. I was told I could do that with the 800 number. Yeah, I won't do that if I can avoid it.
Four loaves of bread this week. It was on sale. I forget whether the one I just opened is one of five or six.

I went to Jack in the Box and nothing was less than $5. The cheapest item was a spicy chicken sandwich and I didn't think I would want that. It was 3:00 before I even bought lunch!
I'm about to finish a loaf of bread.
I have to remember to get that different store's brand of apple juice.
