It’s what’s for dinner.

We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Asiago Turkey Meatballs with tomato basil couscous…

I don’t know that I’ve had couscous before. But it was awesome. And now I definitely want to have it again. Maybe it was because the couscous was covered in this really incredible pesto. And the roasted tomatoes in the couscous were just delicious as well. The meatballs were really good too. But that couscous was the star of the show. It was another really delicious dinner.

We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot. 😀🥡❤️

Our Friday morning.

Good morning from Northside…

Before I started work this morning, we ran to Kroger to get some groceries…

Kroger had restocked their Shining Stars…

I noticed some more oddities while we were grocery shopping…

And then we went to Biggby for coffee…

And today we had a Biggby coupon for half off their Bragel breakfast sammiches…

What a great way to start a Friday before getting to work. 😀🛍️☕️❤️

We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Chipotle Pork Meatballs with cilantro rice and cotija cheese…

Those meatballs had a heat to them that kept building as you continued eating. But it had an incredible flavor. Overall, it was just another really delicious dinner.

Sunday funday.

This morning we ran to Lowe’s and then to Kroger. We saw this patio set…

The social distancing warnings are kinda getting out of control…

Also out of control are star-shaped waffles…

And then we got Biggby beverages as a reward for running our errands…

We worked on our front yard some more this afternoon…

We added another stepping stone path and some more flowers along our bricks…

And then we slowed down and grilled….

We made BBQ-Jerk chicken, sausages, burgers and first time, we grilled salmon…

The salmon was so good. We stood in the kitchen and ate the whole thing…

It was a pretty good Sunday, a little low-key but still a Sunday funday. 😀🗓️❤️

Our Friday.

Good morning from Northside…

Before we started working this morning, we ran over to Oakley to get gas from the Kroger Fuel Station. We had enough Kroger points to get 30¢ off each gallon of gas…

And then we stopped at Biggby for beverages and I tried their sun-dried tomato, ham and swiss bragel. Their bragel breakfast sammiches are really good…

From Biggby, we ran over to Whole Foods to get some groceries…

For dinner, we made this pizza we got from Whole Foods from dinner tonight…

And good evening from Northside..

That was pretty much our Friday. 😀🗓️❤️

It’s what’s for dinner.

We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Pork Egg Roll in a Bowl with crispy wontons and peanuts…

It was really good. But I don’t know that it tasted like an egg roll really at all…

Even after you added the crispy wontons and peanuts…

I had one bite that kind of tasted like an egg roll. And that was it. It would have been a really good meal if you weren’t expecting it to taste like an egg roll. It was really good.
But it just didn’t taste like an egg roll to us. At all. Overall, it was just another really incredible dinner.

Our Sunday funday.

We woke up early this morning to take Oscar to Petsmart to finally get his haircut. But first, we stopped to admire our front yard again in the morning light…

We were running a bit early for his appointment so to burn a little bit of time we stopped through the drive-thru at Biggby for some delicious Biggby coffee…

Then it was time for to get his haircut…

While we were waiting for Oscar to get done with his grooming, we stopped to do some grocery shopping at Kroger…

Holy margarita display…

And it worked. We bought a bottle of peach margaritas. But this giant iguana in a tree didn’t get us to buy anything…

Oscar was ready to come home with some new toys…

And he looked so handsome again…

After we got home with Oscar with put away our groceries, we sunk our stepping stone into our front yard…

And then we rewarded ourselves with one of those margaritas in our backyard…

As we sat on our patio in our backyard, the skies started to look a bit ominous…

And was pretty much our Sunday. 😀📅❤️

We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Crispy Onion Crusted Pork Chops with green beans and butternut squash almondine…

The pork was tender and delicious. But the sauce and the butternut squash almondine was lights out dynamite bananas out of this world. Overall, it was just another really incredible dinner.

Saturday morning errands.

This morning we got up, dodged the raindrops and ran over to the grocery store…

I stopped to look for a birthday card for my sister…

Since the last time we were at Kroger, they placed doors over all the refrigerated sections like where the eggs and yogurts live…

Just another handle to touch. It seems like the grocery store is slowly returning to normal as far as supplies go. There were very few empty shelves this trip. There were also these adorable BBQ themed balloons…

After we had all our groceries, we stopped at the Kroger Fuel Center to get some gas. Genifer had so many Kroger Rewards points that she got $1 off each gallon of gas. And it made the gas just 59¢ a gallon…

We wished we could have filled the car up twice…

Because it only cost $8 to fill up our car…

On the way home, we stopped to get some Biggby Coffee…

It was just a rainy morning. But at least, we got our grocery shopping out of the way for the week. 😀🛍️☕️❤️

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Today, we celebrate some very obscure Mexican military victory over the French with all things Mexican!

HOLY GUACAMOLE! When we were at Kroger a few days ago, they had all the Cinco de Mayo stuff you could ever need…

And this year, Cinco de Mayo falls on Taco Tuesday! I’m super excited because I’m pretty sure we’re having tacos for dinner tonight to celebrate! We hope everyone gets some tacos today and has a wonderful Cinco de Mayo edition of Taco Tuesday. 😀🇲🇽🌮❤️

UPDATE: And here’s my taco…
