My older sister, Brigette, shares her shopping trips and menu plans every week! You can go HERE to see all of her weekly menu plans and you can go HERE to read all about her family!

We’re picking fresh produce from our garden everyday (green beans, several kinds of peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, lettuce and herbs), so I didn’t have to buy many vegetables this week!
