Lots of vegetables

Tuesday Nancy had the appointment with the opthamologist to have the growth taken off her right eye with a laser.  She has been nervous thinking about it.  She got called in and I thinking of getting a cup of coffee to drink while she was having it done. I had two drinks of the coffee when she comes out smiling and said she was finished saying it was nothing at all.
She said this morning she could see better out of the eye now.

Wednesday was the first day I have been away from home in several days.  I was out to get some things to make us cabbage rolls for New Years Day. We've not had cabbage rolls for several years now and its about time to get back to our regular New Years Day tradition of making them.

But the first stop was to the roadside market to get fresh vegetables, in this case almost fresh.
Upon looking they had a section of bruised or a little over ripened vegetables bagged up at .99 a bag.

Tomatoes will be $1.49-$1.98 a pound at the stores, I bought a bag of 8 tomatoes for .99 with the weight of five pounds had to throw away two of them. I quickly ate one before I took the photo(it taste really good).

Green peppers maybe .79 each at the store, had to throw away one.

Small picklin' cucmbers 6 for $1.00.  3 for $1.00 at the store if you can find them.  We like the small ones because to us they taste better and have a "crunch" to them when you bite into them.

Hot peppers 5 for $1.00, I've seen them sell in the stores at $3.98 a pound.

Makes a good bunch of good tasting vegetables for the price of $4.00.

After picking up the vegetables the next stop was at Win Dixie for the rest of my shopping day.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

It's always nice when you can save money on vegetables, unfortunately if Kathy sees one bad one she won't buy them, so she's really selective of which ones she gets.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
