So, I made it home to my husband and kiddos safely. Along with the mountain of laundry that so patiently awaited my return, I also came home to a refridgerator that looked like this:
I had a few things in the pantry (beans, sauces, some brown rice and pasta). I had some things in the freezer (chicken, lean ground beef, salmon). However, I had no time for meal planning so I just needed to get a jump start on the week. Basically, I just needed the basics to keep us alive.

Now my refridgerator looks something like this:
Ahhhh, much better. I know with these basics I can cook some favorite meals, make some killer salads, throw together a decent soup, and keep us alive for yet another week.
That's all I'm going for.

I think we have the exact same fridge! The model, I mean. :)
I restocked our fridge yesterday and am so, so happy. A full fridge makes me happy.
it was so nice of them to clean out the fridge for you!
I have one of those models where the fridge is on the top and the freezer is on the bottom. I LOVE IT. When I babysit toddlers, the freezer is their favorite toy. Open, close, open, close.
SO, I had a coupon for Fage and I tried the 0% like you have in your fridge. OH MY! What creamy, yummy goodness it was! I had plain fat free yogurt this morning. Well, it just was NOT the same!
