Spiced fruit-cake is a big thing in my family at Christmas time. My mother bakes one. It is baked in November and kept in a clay dish in the pantry and about 7 days before Christmas she pours cherry and cognac over it and lets it soak into the cake. It is a very heavy and rich cake but goes well with coffee or eaylgrey tea.
That sounds great! My mom said that she was thinking the original ones were soaking in some type of run or acohol. yours sounds better than the one i ate, ha!
After 2020 I bet a lot of people who used to think preppers were crazy, reevaluated their opinion. 😆 We (husband & I) have always lived rural. So we just naturally prepared for emergencies (nobody wants to travel 45 minutes during an emergency 😬) Moved to Florida a decade ago (in town limits, no less) found out lots of supplies are still super handy (hurricanes)😆😆😆😆🤷🏻♀️
awesome! I'm excited to compare meats and their sizes and prices, to know if it's worth the deal. Let me know the things you end up loving to buy from sams in case there's things i need to buy, that I don't know that I can't live without teehee
For us it's Claxton brand fruitcakes. I swear I could eat my weight in them. I buy the little 12 oz loaves (smaller than what you have here) and I weigh each piece I have and track it, so far Randy and I have eaten 2 loaves AND IT'S NOT EVEN CHRISTMAS YET 🤭 so far I've worked it in my calorie count OK, but I blew my carb & fat count out the door. 💥 I have not touched the eggnog but no matter how much I buy, it keeps disappearing! I think Randy must be bathing in it! 😂
I know it's Monday now, but I hope you had a great weekend! My dad makes frottage and fruitful cookies (he's 81😊) I detest both, anything with candied fruit😝 I'm anxious to hear what you thought of it. Have a blessed day and week❤
Thank you for the tip. I"m learning to enjoy meat that is not quite as brownish pink :) it's an acquired thing, but the flavor is good, my brain and eyes still have issues but i'm getting there!
i honestly vary it, depending on what's open. but.... the one i just finished up was 1/3 walden farms thousand island, 1/3 g hughes polynesian and 1/3 water. oh wait, and a little bit of my plain greek yogurt this time i was out of the walden farms so I used the g hughes polynesian/g hughes honey mustard and water :) my salads never taste the same, ha!
instead of adding different things to make your creamies why not use bobby Parrish protein powder many flavors. FLAVOCITY. just a thought. i use it and love it.

Nice haul, Terri. Hey, you never know when SHTF could happen... good to always be prepared.

for sure! I like to have a little preparedness ready
That's so true, it really opened our eyes to what people will hoard first :)
Good haul! Thanks Terri Jennifer 😊😊🌲⛄☃️
Thank you so much Jennifer!
Great haul- love it- can't wait to see you cut the steaks and how that is done
thank you! it worked really well!
Good haul! I love the zevia sodas. I’ve had the cola, vanilla cola, the Dr Pepper one and grape.
I haven't had the dr pepper one yet. the others are really good!
Great haul. I just got a Sam's membership.

Great haul - I want to be prepared but my hubby thinks I’m the crazy one 🙄😆
hehehehe awwww, dang his hide, i don't think it's bad to have a little extra
It looks very balanced to me😊 I'm curious about your spaghetti squash now to!!🤔😄 Have a great Monday❤
it ended up kind of stringy, and mushy. I'll share that video this week but probably will leave it out next time, but it did taste good!
@terrileist Oh... I've only baked once and it's tricky to me. At least mixed in with the others it would taste good. Nice idea though.🤗
Nice haul!
Yes, it's HAUL.
thank you!
teehee
Great grocery hauls!
Thank you!
My Walmart had rotisserie chickens, cold, for $2.02 each.
I'll have to check out the cold ones, great tip!

ha! I totally understand the blowing the carb and count out of the door. whoopsie!!
awwwwww poor Randy, he just wants some holiday cheer!!!
Oh my, I don't even know what frottage is😂 I meant fruitcake. Darn autocorrect!
ha! I thought maybe it was something regional :)

oh my, it was an adventure. not horrible, but not something I'd go spend money on ha!
I just discovered pannatone, it’s fruit bread from Italy, kind of a cross between fruitcake and bread!
Cool!!
Great video my friend... I like cubing up some chuck roast and air frying.You have to do it to medium rare.... Good steak nuggets

Have fun
thank you!
What is the sauce combo that you do with Walden farms thousand island and is it g Hughes Polynesian or is it sweet chili? I can’t remember.

that table sure looks bare compared to my previous hauls, ha!

I'll have to look at that, thank you!
