July 20, 2013 - Bulk Purchases

I used to take a trip to Costco or Sam's Club whenever I felt like it. Those days are over, especially now that it takes at least an hour to get there.  Today we drove to Indianapolis with my parents in search of bulk food.  We went to two different Marsh Supermarkets so that we could get enough blueberries so that my mom can eat about one third of a pound every day until next year (160 lbs).  We then hit up Costco for a variety of produce and frozen goodies.  My son, thankfully, really liked eating the blueberries, which makes sense because I ate tons of them in my oatmeal every morning when I was pregnant.

Walker also got to watch my dad and I shuck a bunch of sweet corn yesterday that my mom froze today. He enjoyed knawing on the ear of corn that we let him have. 
The future trips that I make to the store will be accompanied by a list and a plan.  It takes too much time and effort to just run in for one thing at a time.
