My husband and I ventured out to just two grocery stores today and slathered our hands with hand sanitizer after we left each store (LOL)! I’ve been trying to avoid the “big” grocery stores (Kroger, Meijer, Costco), so we only visited Save a Lot – and a local food co-op. Here are some things we picked up specifically for St. Patrick’s Day:

Later, I’ll be making potato leek soup and adding some of that Irish stout. Only problem is neither store I visited  today had leeks! We picked up a head of cabbage instead. Instead of corned beef, I’m making it with fresh ground turkey and some uncured turkey bacon that we found at the co-op. It was a little pricey, but will be just enough to make the meal “pop” a bit!
