rkunsaw..
We don't have a grocer in our village..
In the next town (30 kms) where we shop, it is a chain store, and they only carry items that sell and won't take in anything that doesn't go out quickly....

I will definately look into it but first we must go to the BIG city to shop which will be early next year....
They have a Wall Mart there so I will try them....
 
I think you can grow Stevia, and grind the dried leaves yourself, but am not sure how much it would take or where it grows best. Otherwise, I would try online or else Walmart when you get there.

ETA: Or, you might try a good health food store in the city. Maybe Mama Jean's if you have that??
 

Anne..
We can barely grow regular vegetables up here because of the short growing season..

Health food stores ??? There aren't any around here...

I will look into it our next trip to Sudbury, but till then, I have NO choice but to continue using what I have.....
 
Ate out at Cracker Barrel yesterday. I had a delicious Cider BBQ Chicken Breast smothered with apple bits, BBQ sauce and cranberries. Wih it came a baked sweet potato with a cinnamon sugar topping and a small bowl of broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. Outstanding meal for the money. No room for dessert.
 
I'm ashamed to admit we had Maccas for lunch ... :(

Ceasar salad topped with pan grilled chicken breast, french bread and a glass of white wine. Hubby does a mean ceasar dressing.

For a treat, two pieces of Russell Stover chocolate from the box I gifted myself.
 
MEATLOAF !!! GREAT COMFORT FOOD !!!

I am making meatloaf for supper tonight.. The easiest and best way I know ..

One pound of minced chicken.. (or turkey)
One egg..
One box of stove top stuffing mix for chicken.. (or turkey)
One cup of water.. (I will use chicken broth)
Mix everything, put into a loaf pan and bake....... That's all !!!!

How about a salad to go with it..


Breakfast; French toast using pumpernickel bread..
 
For supper tonight (Christmas eve) we are having a guest friend sleeping over for a few days.. I intend to BBQ some chicken drums and then add some BBQ sauce to them.. I use "Canadian Club" sauce but I spike it with some tobasco sauce..

A cold brocolli salad that I will make today.. I make a large pot as it is much better the 2nd & 3rd day..
Some brown rice made with chicken stock..

Breakfast will be an omelette of some sort..
Lunch.. ??????
Something for Princess and our guest as they are both diabetics..
 
Christmas day....

Breakfast will be french toast made with fresh pumpernickle bread and served with S/F syrup and (or) S/F strawberry jam preserves...

For supper on Christmas night, we (3 of us) are going to our local hall in our village where half the village comes out for a "traditional" turkey supper..
All this is at "NO CHARGE" to the public..
Supper is called for 4:00pm and is all over by 7:00 ish..
We will then come home (back to our house) and have some crackers & cheese & hummus & veggies later on in the evening..

I will then make a "yonanis" treat for us all using frozen bananas, strawberries, and mixed berries... 100% natural...
 
Christmas lunch will be Char Sue (Chinese Pork fillets, cold with peanut sauce) & various salads .... no roasts in this temperature. It's our family "tradition" and our sons and DILs always hint before Xmas

There is a better picture somewhere but I cannot find it.
 
Having some freaks...er..I mean friends in this evening for a snack buffet and whatever they want to drink.

Mr.O smoked a nice salmon filet (no, Phil and TG he didn't roll it in papers first) serving that with some home made tartar sauce, capers, chives and lemon. Made some slow cooked pulled chicken for tacos, had a hell of a time pulling that chicken up here, he just didn't want to come.. along with deviled eggs and the usual assorted dips, chips and crackers. Baked a pumpkin pie and putting out some cookies for dessert.

Now I have to go shower, put on my Merry Christmas face and make like it all took no effort and I was so freakin' happy to do it...BahHumBug!
