I had a great plan in place for this coming week’s dinner. I had a good mix of new recipes and family-approved meals. I’d written out the shopping list, organized by category. Brooke and I headed to Aldi, did a pretty good job sticking to the list and were checkout when everyone’s nightmare came true for me.
“DECLINED” flashed on the display of the cash register.
Apparently, the expiration date had passed on our debit card. Honest mistake I suppose but it felt horrible all the same. And honestly, the embarrassment of being declined was nothing compared to how bad I felt when the more-understanding-that-necessary Manager assured me he didn’t mind putting ALL.MY.ITEMS. back. What a shopping trip!!
So, since we couldn’t buy anything, we will be eating from the pantry this week. Luckily, on our trip last week I grabbed a few things that we didn’t NEED that week but I wanted to be stocked up on. That’s going to be a huge help!!
English Muffins, French Toast Bites, Waffles, Protein Shakes, Granola & Yogurt
Lots of leftovers for me, I also threw together a couple Mason Jar Salads from chicken leftover from tonight’s dinner
Brooke will have her regulars – sandwiches, crackers, applesauce, cheese, carrots, etc.
Keith should be able to get by on the amount of lettuce and salad fixin’s for at least a couple days
Monday – Spaghetti w/ Meatballs or Meat Sauce
Tuesday – using one of our last vouchers for Hot Rod’s 50s Diner – a family favorite restaurant
Wednesday – Country Girl Mac n’ Cheese (name Brooke came up with for Mac n’ Cheese with hot dogs)
Thursday – Grilled Cheese & Popcorn Night!!!
Friday – Burgers & Fries
Have you ever had an embarrassing experience like that at a store? I’ll be perfectly fine to never live through that again!!
