My daughter went to visit her Mimi for a while yesterday and like most of the weather around here recently, it's wet and miserable. So it felt like a pizza-and-movie day.
We stopped at the warehouse store and spent about $25 on food: two 30-count packages of Nature Valley granola bars (in my eyes the only ones with adequate nutritional value), a 2 lb block of cheddar, and two huge jars of JIF peanut butter. I leave the granola bars where my daughter can reach them. That way when she wakes up early on days we could sleep in, and says she's hungry, she can help herself to a snack.
On the way home, we stopped by a nearby Italian restaurant and ordered a tomato-basil pizza. We also got a chicken-bacon-ranch super slice to snack on while we waited. It was a $22 splurge. The tomato basil pizza had fresh mozzarella balls that melted it the oven, fresh cut tomatoes and basil. Bruschetta and fresh cheese on a pizza crust. We didn't eat dinner last night because we were so full. We have three slices left for lunch today.
And I could have gotten a pie of the chicken-bacon-ranch, but that had no redeeming nutritional qualities and this seemed the healthier choice.
