Actually, that's not far off.
Groceries have already gone up about $400 a month for our family.just saw on the news a farmer who said that becouse of the lack of fertilizer he thinks consumers of food (that is everyone) may be paying a lot more every month - - -he said maybe $1000 more - per month!!!

I remember well. Mom used to send me to the little market. Weber bread had Disney decals on the end. 15 cents.
We had the bakery delivery trucks too along with ice cream and tinkers who sold everything from produce to cigarettes. Thifty ice cream 5 cents a scoop.
Put some mcrib bbq sauce on that and I am sure it would be delicious
I’d definitely step up and pay a dollar! Actually they could pass it off as their new vegan option and the weirdos would pay $6 for it.Put some mcrib bbq sauce on that and I am sure it would be delicious
Our groceries have jumped from about $150.00 per week to around $250.00 but to be honest part of the jump is adding more prep items.
I have learned when we have a steak to have several sides.... by doing that we don't finish the steaks ......so we save the leftover meat and use it in a stew or a beef veggie soup ....we end up getting about 3 to 4 extra meals from the steak..doesn't take as long to cook as stew meat...so we have fuel savings also....the flavor is wonderful...add a good bread and you have a great meal.
If I spend $24.00 for 2 steaks and end up with a total of 8 meals for the two of us . I am spending only $3.00 for the meat per meal. The veggies for soup or stew are inexpensive. Doing this we can enjoy steak more often. Just an idea.
Or You could use them as roasting breasts, save the roasted skins and bones and make roasted chicken soup. Saves you a step. I save skin and bones in the freezer till I get a gallon bag full then make soup in the slow cooker.Hmmm, good idea!
I’ve already cleaned them up, divided into freezer bags and in the freezer they went.
Maybe with the next ones I’ll do that
Friend was going to bring me Smart water from Costco and they are out of almost all waters.I'm hearing from all over the place about no stores having distilled water. Today I was in Kroger and Safeway and neither had any distilled water. Hmmm...
Not surprising. Seed prices are skyrocketing, fertilizer has more than doubled, shipping is problematic, and demand is high.OK, lets talk vegetable starter plants.
I start from my own seed, but sometimes the seedlings don’t do well, and I have to buy vegetable plants from a local nursery.
Some of my broccoli plants from my seed were puny, so I stopped st the local nursery to buy a six pack of them.
For years, their price has always been $3.98 Plus tax. Last September, they were still $3.98 plus tax for a six pack of little plants.
Today: $5.19 plus tax.

Yeah, I will check that out.There's a thread on starting seeds in the Garden Forum here at TBK. I don't have time to find the link right now, got some major cleaning to do before the flooring guy comes on Saturday to measure my kitchen and bathroom, finally getting new floors! Woot!!!
Is that for organic??The local brand of milk we prefer is up to $5.78/gallon.
The Jewish delis serve the roast beef on Rye with Russian dressing so thick its hard to get in your mouth.Roast beef on Jewish rye with a bit of mayo is the way we like it. I've never thought about using left overs for hash. I'll have to try that one.
Oh my, Dennis has stopped the car and he is taking his flip-flop off. Someone's gonna get a whooping.
They had a huge recall due to several babies dying from contaminated formula. Don't remember the details.Forgot to mention that while most of the shelves were fairly full, there was a notice limiting sales of baby formula to four items due to shortages.
I have NEVER understood why every mother doesn't nurse.They had a huge recall due to several babies dying from contaminated formula. Don't remember the details.
This is absolutely incorrect. Regular McDonald’s burgers get one pickle. Large sandwiches (QP, Big Mac, etc) get two. It’s been that way since the 70’s when I worked for them.Actually they’ve reduced the amount of pickles, used to be you got three or four on a regular hamburger, now you get one.
