Brigette,
First of all, I love reading your shopping lists/menus. We are a family of 6 also so I always enjoy seeing what you’ve got planned. Secondly, your birthday menus for your 5 year old were so cute. The food combos made me giggle as I remembered when my own kids were that age and some of the menus they put together. Thanks for sharing with us!
What are Lazy Cabbage Rolls? I have actually just “discovered” cabbage and love it. I’d love the recipe. Thanks!
Every time I read your budget for groceries-I am totally amazed. I live on the Canadian Prairies and I can buy very little for $50-$60. For example, currently one head of cauliflower sells for $7-8. Yep, you read that right…:)
