Meijer & Kroger Trips March 10th

I went to Meijer and Kroger today. It felt like I hadn't been shopping forever! Really it had only been a week...but even that trip was smaller like today's trips. We've been eating from my stockpile for the most part.  The past week has been a great example of just how helpful a stockpile can be.  3 out of the 5 of us (including me) have had a day on the couch with a yucky stomach bug.  Let's hope the other 2 don't get a turn!!

I went to Meijer first and here's what I bought....
