I can't eat any of that!!!

The kids are back to school today and I am enjoying the peace and quiet of my home. Aaahhhhh.
This is the first year I didn't cry on their first day! But wait! I'm tearing up just thinking about it. The hubby went to work late today to keep me company and now its time to ramble about my grocery savings from Publix this weekend. I love Publix! The sales weren't anything to write home about this week at any of my local stores and we are pretty well stocked, but I couldn't pass up FREE dog food for my Jake-e. In fact, I'm going back for a rain check today so I can get more dog food at the same price later on when I have more coupons. I did splurge on a few items that I don't normally buy because traditionally, we haven't been able to afford them in the past, but NOW we can! YIPPEE!
