Remember when I went on this shopping trip last year? I got to do that again this weekend. It was SO much fun! I found myself some new jeans!!!!! I so needed some new jeans! I was also able to get Matt some dress clothes for his new job. (You can read about his new job here. The restaurant still hasn’t opened yet, but they’re working now toward December 1st! Oh lovely red tape.)
In food news, my Azure standard order is set to come in this week. Crazy me, I sort of ordered sixty pounds of apples. BUT, sometimes my produce doesn’t come in. So just in case, I ordered three different twenty pound boxes of three different varieties of apples…hoping that at least one of them comes in. So I may end up with only twenty or forty pounds of apples. But I may end up with sixty pounds of apples. But it’s okay because we’ve been feeding a lot of people lately and our boys like apples for snacks a lot and…and…we can even share with our friends if we need to.
Want me to let you know if they all come in or not (so that you know whether or not you should be coming to an apple eating party or not)?

Fine more menu planning inspiration at Organizing Junkie!
I’m part of a new Azure Standard Co-op. We did one order during the summer and finally found a few more people so we could do another order. Our stuff will be here tomorrow. I’m so excited! I didn’t order anything exciting like apples though. I’m pretty sure that the truck that is coming to us heads on to Nebraska.
Warm vanilla soothers? I’m intrigued!
I think I will try that tomato soup recipe this week with some grilled cheese. Used to eat our tomato soup with fritos….I wonder if I could make a frito with corn tortillas or perhaps just fried up some thin strips of corn tortillas to lay on top…like tortilla soup.
I don’t comment much, but I appreceiate your blog. I’m VERY curious about the warm vanilla soother. Also, I’m excited because I’m going to pick up my first 4 gallons of raw milk on Friday! Thanks for your encouragement in healthy eating.
