I've been making oatmeal a lot lately. For a long time I didn't like eating the plain instant oats from the giant container due to lack of flavor. But I've been experimenting with what I can put in there, and it's been pretty good so far.
Yesterday I came in under budget on groceries for the second week in a row I decided to reward myself with some raspberries, which you see in my oatmeal. Shopping at Pick n' Save has made me better appreciate my Smith's Fresh Value's card. Average savings on a week's worth of groceries at Smiths is $20+ but here, I'm excited if I save over 5 bucks. It's lame. There's a "complete this survay for a chance to win $50 in groceries" on the bottom of the receipt though. I fill it out every week and yell at them for never having what is in the ad in stock. I think that has to do with the store we go to though; it's the closest one, but it's kind of ghetto.

It's raining. I really don't want to stand in the rain at the soccer game for three hours today. Ugh.
