(Kid not included)

Keith and I went to the store recently, on a mission to get as many fresh fruits and vegetables as possible. We got:

And it was only $35.

 

Groceries can really add up. Our family spends a lot on food because there are so many of us. But I love that fruits and vegetables - the best foods we can put in our bodies - can be bought so reasonably.

 

Sometimes I think we have in our heads that produce costs too much, so we hold back and don't buy enough. The picture above proves otherwise. 

 

Look at the variety! Look at the meal and snack options! And beyond the health benefits, I've found that having all that great produce handy makes life easier because I can quickly grab fruit for the kids snacks.

If your school mornings are hectic, allow me to remind you of a lovely way I cheat to get my 5 and 7yo kids out the door in time. 

 

And with that, I send you a huge weekend blessing full of family, sunshine, and Jesus!
