. . . at least for the short-term. Why? Because Dan and I are going camping this weekend, and there are just a few fun things that you HAVE to have while camping, like veggie dogs, buns, marshmallows, and pop!
Yes, I probably could technically have made ALL of those things . . . but, Suzy Veggie Homemaker that I am, I just don't have time this week. So, we're cheating a little! My grocery haul, (and what a haul, physically, it was!), tonight:

Can you believe stone fruits were cheaper per pound than apples this week?? Exciting, but a little crazy, if you ask me!
When I came home from the store, I made another batch of Tropical Lemon-Coconut Muffins to take camping this weekend. (Quick breakfast with some fruit and a hard-boiled egg or two, eh?) I doubled the recipe this time, cut out half the coconut, and added a very generous cup of frozen blueberries to the batter. Look how gorgeous the avocado looks, pureed with the agave nectar!
Finished muffins:
And, I leave you with the cat:
What is it about laundry baskets that cats love so much, anyway?

I forgive you for breaking your 5 or less rule...just this once! :P Just kiddin'.
I like that brand of buns-Rudi's. I have only tried the burger ones, though. I don't like veggie dogs that much, but you better believe that if I go camping this summer, I will buy some! They're a must.
That avocado puree is really pretty!
Have a wonderful time camping!!
Oh, and I can't put anything past you. Although, I am not confirming nor denying that your Liz Lovely answer is correct ;)
Oooh, have fun camping this weekend!! And enjoy those Tropical Lemon-Coconut Muffins - yum!!
Haha, definitely looks like your cat loves the laundry basket :0)
WOW! That is a load from the grocery store, you weren't kidding! Haha! I hope you guys have a blast on your trip!
And Oliver looks cute in the laundry basket. Our kitties do that too, and one of their favorite things to do is lay on freshly washed clothing.... ;-)
Have a fabulous time camping! It looks like you will have delicious fuel for whatever camping activities you do :o)

Have a great time camping! And could your kitty be any cuter in that basket?!
Hope you have a blast on your camping trip!
