The haul.

We only had a few min to stop by Aldi on our way home today. My mom had to get to work but she'd told me they had small plants for $1.99 so I was interested. Popped by the produce aisle as well and this is what I ended up with.

I spent $30 total - I bought 5 plants so that was $10 the remaining $20 went for half & half (not for me!) and a package of cheese (not for me!) and:
4 lbs of clementine oranges
3 lbs of gala apples
12 small cucumbers
a pkg of grape tomatoes
a pint of blueberries
2 pkgs of small sweet peppers
1 pkg of baby carrots
a pkg with 4 small heads of "artisan" lettuce
3 avocados (I think these were like 39 or 49 cents ea. !@#$!@#$!@#$)
FOR $20!

The produce is not organic and I'm aware of the dirty dozen and I buy organic when I can.. I can't get it all right all the time! heh. I had this whole inner dialog with myself about how buying organic costs more but saves more when I don't have to pay for cancer treatments later. Anyway! I'm trying really hard! I made it through the weekend having made no awful food decisions! The most guilt I have is over the tortilla chips I ate with dinner Saturday night but I'm over it. I'm interested to weigh myself at work Wednesday and see if there's been any change.

In other news, the weather is straight up amazing. I've got another post coming with a bunch of phone photos I snapped while wandering outside at my mom's today.

For dinner I'm cooking some brown rice and these lovely tiny black lentils I bought. I'm going to cook a bunch of onions, peppers, mushrooms like fajita-type goodness. Little avocado on top. Yeah.
