Food Prep for Kidz Week |
We always have a great time with
the nieces and nephews. The
terrifying part is what to feed them? How to make it tasty as well as
nutritious and keep their tummies from rumbling.
This morning Doc met to “consult”
(have coffee) with a colleague at the “Bad Ass” Coffee Company. When he stepped out of his van upon
arrival, he saw a dot in a parking spot - it was a penny. (Doc #1)
At noon I headed out to run a few
errands. The first stop was a gas
station. It had been seven weeks
since I fuelled Pippy and she was hungry!
Found a quarter next to the gas pump as I was washing the windows. (Coin #1). Next I went to the post office. I chose to visit the small, local office versus the
main branch and was concerned that
it would be busy at lunch time. I
walked in and was the only customer there! Great service.
I asked the postal worker if I
needed to use “Rancho Cucamonga” as the mailing address or if “Alta Loma” was
acceptable? (It is so much shorter
and easier to spell). She said
Alta Loma is the correct City name to use! Made my day.
Then I went for a preliminary
grocery run. Bought twice as many
groceries as Doc and I usually do.
This evening at 8 p.m. I headed out
to do the real grocery shopping.
Sure glad I don’t have four kids to feed every week. That takes a lot of time to load a full
cart! I did find a dime and
quarter there. (Coins #2 & 3)
Doc found one dirt penny near the
drain at the car wash, then a penny at Starbucks with his afternoon coffee. (Doc #2 & 3)
Doc spent some time at the Pomona
house packing up gear which he then transported and dumped here at the Penny
Palace.
Total: 6 Coins P (3), N (0), D (1), Q
(2) = $0.63
