Today I bought 30 glue sticks...

Published: Thu, 07/13/17

You all know that if I find a good sale price on something we need, I buy an entire cart full. People will say to me, "Wow, what are you doing with all those strawberries?" and I simply say, "We're eating them." Because that's what we do. We buy the sales. We eat the food.

Just recently I grabbed from our drawer the very last glue stick I'd bought at last year's Back-to-School sale and I told myself, "I never buy enough of these! When they go on sale again this year, I'm buying a cart full!" 

Not to worry though. We won't be eating the glue sticks. So when people say, "What are you doing with all those glue sticks?" I guess I'll just have to say something like, "I actually don't know. I just know that somehow we always go through them and I always need a lot. Even with a house full of big kids."

So today I bought the glue sticks. A thirty-pack to be exact. Surely, surely that will be enough to last me a year. (They are on sale here at Amazon so they'll come in my next Subscribe and Save order. Break down after S&S and tax made each stick $0.27!)
By the way, I'm ridiculously excited because the 8-Quart Instant Pot I ordered earlier this week will arrive at my house TONIGHT!! My life is about to be forever changed, apparently. I cannot wait to play with it! Who else invested in one of these gems on Prime Day?

One last note: I share my very best and easiest tips for Grilling Chicken on this post. Also, we're giving away a brand new eBook filled with 33 Simple Summer Recipes and Tips that is a huge hit! It's for all Simple Meals subscribers, so not only is that subscription saving people time and money, the new eBooks offers even more goodness! Check it out here!

Tonight we're having neighbors over to play games, so I plan to make Cream Cheese Salsa Dip and Chocolate Whipped Cream with Strawberries. We're looking forward to getting to know these neighbors better finally as it has taken WAY too long for us to find an evening to get together. Yay for tonight!

What do you have going on today?
