Rejoice, rejoice! We have actually had a few days of sunshine and warm temperatures this week. It really does so much to life the spirits, doesn’t it? We have our church picnic today and then next weekend, we’ve got a family BBQ and a fun trip to African Lion Safari. June is shaping up to be a busy, but fun month!

This Week’s Meals
You will find that most of these meals are under $10 based on prices (sale prices where possible) in London, Ontario, Canada. We are feeding a family of 4 – 3 adults and 1 toddler, all with healthy appetites. We generally have some leftovers from our meals and if these aren’t being used as part of another meal, they are used for lunches throughout the week.
Prices are based mostly on those at No Frills and FreshCo, the two grocery stores we frequent most often with an occasional shop at Loblaws for some of the more gourmet items (and because it’s just my favorite store – it even has a Starbucks!). I’m always sure to search the FLIPP app for the best deals!
