I was hoping something awesome would come around for my 800th post -- grocery shopping is pretty awesome, eh? I'm sure glad I took the time to take a picture tonight!

I have three favorite salads of all time. All three salads begin with romaine and/or mixed baby greens, and then add either beets and goat cheese, a host of Greek-type veggies and feta, or . . .
sliced apples, sliced fennel, walnuts, and bleu cheese. Heaven in a bowl, in my opinion.

Happy 800th post!
Just wondering, how much was your total spent on that big grocery shopping trip?
Nana, I spent about $225 for this big shop, but this week I only spent $25. I tend to stock up in a big way at the beginning of the month, and then make smaller trips, mostly for coffee and produce, throughout the rest of the month.
