Any, it’s so good to see your heart is happy again!!! The holiday, time with your family and friends, has helped to ground you, give you time for reflection and inspiration. Thank you for all that you do. You are such a caring, loving Mother, Wife, friend and woman of God. You help me to get through each day with your pearls of wisdom, energy and great video content. Again, thanks 🙏
I did that myself help my grandma clean out her fridge the other day because she’s 92 and it’s hard for her to bend so I live right around the corner from her so I just went over there with her the other day and me and her cleaned it she did what she could and I did the rest and it looks amazing and I did my fridge too I’m catching up on my laundry and I cleaned up my room a little bit and I’m doing the kitchen a little bit and then I’ll work on the other few room but I’m doing a little bit at a time so I don’t overwhelm myself but it’s starting to look like a house again
So glad you all had a good time visiting family and friends , it's good to go on vacation/ holiday ,we go for two weeks for our holiday on the 24 of September at a seaside place called Tenby in Wales UK ,it's only a two hour drive from where we live can't wait to have a break from normality x.
You can make chicken soup using the drum sticks or cook the drum sticks basic and take the meat off and use in pot pies, casseroles etc. I’m not a big fan of drum sticks either but if they are super cheap I will get some and use in these ways
I am back into the habit again of doing a list and meal planning It's a positive for us I feel more put together if I have planned meals. Wee Maddie is a great companion on shopping trips. ❤️🤗
Good morning Amy & helper, Maddie. Glad you made it safely home. I just knew today's video was going to be a grocery haul! Lol. My mom always let everything in the pantry twindle down before vacation time. So, we had to do the grocery thing too when we got home.
Nice haul. Glad you took us along! When I had a pool,the best thing I learned was to monitor the pH. Chlorine doesn't even work in this Carolina sun if the pH is off!
You sounded so much more peaceful and relaxed. If it takes a short trip away or something else to help with the overwhelming sagas of life then do it. You owe it to yourself and you deserve it! God is good.
Amy for your pool get a phosphate remove. Algae feeds on phosphates that’s why it grows so quickly for you - especially since you don’t cover your pool. Phosphates come from leaves. Clorox has a bottle, with the pool supplies I believe it’s a one gallon bottle ( semi clear bottle with blue liquid). It’s approximately $34; because of your area I would put the full gallon in then use the green to blue flocculate, then follow the maintenance directions for the phosphate remove ( or use it weekly because of all your trees).
Good morning. Getting up and going shopping has its advantages, getting breakfast and helping to influence discount shopping purchases like cereal 😆. Lots of exciting foods. I look forward to seeing what recipes look like. Have a terrific Thursday and I will see ya tomorrow
Thank you for another wonderful video. Welcome home. Glad you had a blessed and amazing vacation. Thank once again for taking us along on your vacation. So, raining there? wonderful menu.
A tip for your dairy free kids(I have some too) often times people with dairy intolerance can digest aged cheeses like cheddar or Parmesan fine. It has something to do with the enzymes in it. Same goes for butter too. because let’s be honest dairy free cheese is 👎
Hi Amy, we are so glad you had a great time with your family and a nice break at the same time. But when you got home I bet Maxine went crazy seeing you. You probably missed her as much as she probably missed you. It was nice seeing you relax with your family.
Just an idea..With the chicken you could make chicken and dumplings soup. It’s like chicken and dumplings but with corn, peas and green beans,any vegetables. It’s our family favorite. I use the Griffith (on UA-cam)recipe for egg noodles, u don’t need to use as many eggs as they do. The last time I made it, I times it by 5.
Have you tried cutting the drum meat away from the bone but not the top knuckle, and snipping out the small bone and cartilage tips, and pulling out any vein material. That seems to be my sons big beef with drumsticks. but too, you can wrap parchment around the thin bone end tie it with a string and then bake the open drums in shake and bake BBQ standing on their heads and have the "shaggy chicken umbrella" to eat and dunk in BBQ sauce. Just an idea. don't really have a recipe but you can also air fry these
Good morning Amy Welcome Home! Great shopping haul. Love how you know your bargains which helps me when I do my on line shopping. Sam’s doesn’t deliver to me because of my area. But would be doing so in the near future. Maddie is a great helper and soon she’ll be great at knowing bargains etc like her mom. Thanks for sharing. Have a fantastic and blessed day.
Welcome Home 🏡 Loved the vacation videos. Those sausage patties are very yummy and you can cook in the air fryer. I like them with a scoop of cottage cheese wth pepper yummy.
Lol Trappekeepers!!! I rememeber being sooo jealous of all the kids @ school who had those, when I was younger! We never could afford 1 🤷♀️ Wow that was a whole "other" lifetime ago! Thanks for the memory🙂
Maybe someone has said this already, but if I forget ice packs and NEED them I just buy a bag of ice and set the items with it. You buy WAAAAY more groceries than I do though. Still enjoy your videos after all the years.
Glad you had such a great vacation and that you made it home safely! I am sure cinnamon s'mores will be fine. I cheat....we use fudge striped cookies to make our s'mores. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!
When I was last in the USA, I had earth balance dairy free margarine and cheeses. Lactose-free might be an option. It depends on whether it is lactose or casein that is the culprit for the individual. I notice that in Canada more stores are creating their own brand dairy and gluten free products. Walmart gluten free pasta is the cheapest where I live.
Thank you Mamma. You mentioned how eggs were cheaper. Shock!! 🙂 They are cheaper here in AZ. Last week or so were about $18. Checked today $11 for the big box of eggs.
I give up..lol I'm trading my iPad in for a regular computer. No, I just cant!! Stay strong Mary, you can do this........lolol Amy, I don't know what's happening here. I know I've mentioned this before, so what happens is my iPad has a mind of its own. It will say whole sentences on its own, single letters will just randomly type themselves as well. Now last but certainly not least, EVERYTHING I type, ever word (And you know I'm not without those) disappears. Honestly, after all this I forgot what I was going to say to begin with...so let me continue watching. 🙃 So just hello Maryons...hope you have a bit longer with the warm weather..for us, it's over. 89 was it yesterday here, todayhigh 66, 50 to high 40's at night. WELL POO
We are so fortunate to have our own beef and pork, in our freezer that we don’t have to buy meat, that takes a load off the budget... heading to Costco this week( 5 hours away) to stock for 6-8 months of what we don’t putbup
Hi Amy! My daughter said the "Not Milk" brand tastes amazing. Unfortunately, her stomach didn't tolerate it - due to a medical issue. She was really disappointed. Hopefully it works for your family. 😊
My friend said that they have cabbage cheese if you go to the deli like the grocery store I don’t know how much it cost but the deli has cabbage cheese slices and they’re made out of cabbage cheese so you might want to try that my friend says it’s really good she can’t have dairy so she’s try that just trying to give you some ideas
My daughter had the same flying bug issue,they came up through the drains,come to find out the the flap that closes at the bottom of the drain had worn out and needed replacing. It also blocks any strange gases odors.
Hello Amy x firstly Maddie is such a lovely little helper 🎀 I always enjoy your shopping videos 🙏 we dont get that ""whipping cream in that blue tub"" here in the UK... it looks delicious 🌷 thank you for another great video. Have a blessed day x x
Good evening Amy! Came home to a fishy smell, huh! Welcome back 🤭! Nice grocery haul. Thanks for sharing. Hafa adai and love from the island of Guam 🌴💕🌴
We've had the not milk before. It's good for drinking and cereal. Also for baking and things like mashed potatoes because it doesn't have the nutty taste of almond milk. The follow your heart cheese is good. Personally I like Daiya and Violife better. But Walmart (at least in NY) doesn't sell those in cheese. They do have Daiya frozen pizzas that are delicious.
@@amymaryon I have found it at BJ's and Target in addition to Wegmans. I'm not sure how close you are to the Wegmans that is in NC, but it's worth the trip. I love Wegmans. Their store brand items are great and produce quality is amazing.
Potatoes are just insane. We went grocery shopping yesterday at Sams and Walmart we stocked up. 15lbs of potatoes retailed for 13.00 that's really high. I guess it's cause the potato shortage from the droughts.
Ooof- your Sam's seems to have more reasonable pricing still. West coast, not so much. I was astounded this last weekend. My usual maybe $200 trip was $450something.
Amy, I’m driving to Florida in December and stopping to see a friend in Gastonia NC. My goal the next day is to hit one of SC bargain shops you go to. Not sure they will be on my way, but I will deviate if necessary so I can load up my car for my DIL. What are their names? Smart shopper? I feel like there is a different one tho too. I don’t think zirconia is close to where I will be but maybe you can help me figure out where to shop. Welcome home!
Question for you (I know you’re a busy mama!) not sure if emailing would be better? But wondering if you have any tips for a grading system with homeschooling? How do you go about that? Thanks a bunch🙏🏼
Gd morning Amy ty for ur videos appreciate it I was wondering if you could let me know how u do your fruit flies mixture because I’m failing dreadfully lol well you have a very blessed day ty
Follow your heart cheese and cao cheese is really good at Walmart. Look over by dairy section and they have lactaid lactose free sour cream and cottage cheese. They also have great value play based shredded cheese in dairy section. Dayia cheese isn’t good don’t recommend it.
Gm Amy Great shopping 🛍 luv the great Discounts those 🍎 look yummy for pies 🥧 😋 😀 great 👀 you back home 🏡 QNS,NY I can't wait for tmrw gather your fragments 😊🥩🍗🥐🥖

The joy of the Lord resides in you Amy 🎉❤ you are always so positive. I’ve learned to say “that’s okay” more because of you.

Very glad you are back home.

That seems to be my sons big beef with drumsticks. but too, you can wrap parchment around the thin bone end tie it with a string and then bake the open drums in shake and bake BBQ standing on their heads and have the "shaggy chicken umbrella" to eat and dunk in BBQ sauce. Just an idea. don't really have a recipe but you can also air fry these
I would love to hear about your family’s dairy free/gluten free journey. And maybe some recipe ideas!?
Hash brown patties are scarce here in GA Publix is limiting purchases to two per shopper
Welcome home!
Good morning Amy
Welcome Home!

Thank you Kathy..good to be home
I love Lima beans my mom makes a mean Lima been casserole,it got sausage and bacon in it.
I like being in the store and using my Walmart app to price check! They have the scan option to check prices right in the app!
Welcome Home 🏡 Loved the vacation videos. Those sausage patties are very yummy and you can cook in the air fryer. I like them with a scoop of cottage cheese wth pepper yummy.
Lima beans are near the regular canned veggies
Glad you had a great time away from home ( vacation?) . Enjoyed shopping with you too !!😂
First here we love your channel ❤️ 👏nice haul !
Lol Trappekeepers!!! I rememeber being sooo jealous of all the kids @ school who had those, when I was younger! We never could afford 1 🤷♀️ Wow that was a whole "other" lifetime ago! Thanks for the memory🙂
Smiling
the croissant crust DiGiorno pizzas are amazing if you like a softer crust like a pan pizza
First, I enjoyed your vacation videos, secondly I always buy a bag of ice or veggies to use as my ice pack.
Maybe someone has said this already, but if I forget ice packs and NEED them I just buy a bag of ice and set the items with it. You buy WAAAAY more groceries than I do though.
Still enjoy your videos after all the years.
When we do "chicken wings" we use chicken legs. Flour and fry then put in the oven with your choice of sauce.🙂

Try cooking the drumsticks and then take chicken meat off use like chicken breast to make casseroles
you're such a sweetheart 💕
Potato harvest hasn't happen yet this fall. The preppers in a panic wiped out the cold storage so we all pay.
The maple flavored sausage at Walmart is GOOD! I don’t like breakfast sausage and I like that.
Hi Amy! My daughter said the "Not Milk" brand tastes amazing. Unfortunately, her stomach didn't tolerate it - due to a medical issue. She was really disappointed. Hopefully it works for your family. 😊

I've never heard of that. I'll look into that thanks
The closest to a "discount store" to me is a store that's just basically like a sav-a-lot. They have 15 pounds of potatoes for $7!
My daughter had the same flying bug issue,they came up through the drains,come to find out the the flap that closes at the bottom of the drain had worn out and needed replacing.
It also blocks any strange gases odors.

The dish soap you got at Sam's club is hand soap.
I made that same mistake.
Lol i realize that now ..oh well i guess we use that for dishes
Good evening Amy! Came home to a fishy smell, huh! Welcome back 🤭! Nice grocery haul. Thanks for sharing. Hafa adai and love from the island of Guam 🌴💕🌴
Amy, Why don't you price compare on your desktop, then make your grocery list up according to what you find on sale where your going.👍😉
Great idea
Bone broth with the drumstix
We got two big boxes of pretzels at Bargains tonight.

You empty your pool in the winter it doesn't dry out and crack the liner ?
We leave about a foot of water in it
Where was the first place you went to (before Sam’s)?
Amy, I’m driving to Florida in December and stopping to see a friend in Gastonia NC. My goal the next day is to hit one of SC bargain shops you go to. Not sure they will be on my way, but I will deviate if necessary so I can load up my car for my DIL.
