My Family's Reaction

I was not intending to blog until Monday. I have it all set in my mind what I am planning to do. A menu prepared over the weekend and shopping on Monday to get the items I need for the food that week. Posting the menu and the supplies along with what I spent at the store. All seems good to me. I have thought about my family and their part in this. Last night the questions flew!
"Mom, this all Aldi's thing, are we really doing this?" This came from Susan. "Yes," I said, "for three months."
"Three months, I thought it was only thirty days" was Kurt's surprised response.
I assured them that they would be fine, someone suggested that I sock up on items we can't find at Aldi, then came the realization from Debbie. "That means you will be doing my open house with all Aldi food, oh Mom!"

So do I or do I not? Does the celebration of a graduation warrant the deviation of this determined plan? I did say all our meals would come from Aldi. Can I therefore determine that the open house is not a "meal"? Fortunately I have time to wrestle with that before it happens. Also a Sundae Bar open house would be easy to do from ingredients at Aldi. We will just have to wait and see.

Be thinking about my family as they are dragged into this venture. They are not too sure about all this.

  1. I told everyone at Titus 2 Moms last night about your blog. Several said they already shop at Aldi's or are beginning to. :)

  2. Wendy, I am so excited about this blog! We love aldi at our house and shop there primarily for our groceries. I'll be anxious to hear your family's thoughts on their food.
