Defining the Blog

Good morning and happy MLK day!!



I have several new readers that I am super excited about!! I don't know who you are, but my reader number has finally made it to double digits! What! What!! Thank you for taking interest in a blog that is inconsistent, has no theme, you never know what you are gonna get and is always full of errors.  If you stay with me for a couple of years I promise it will get better.  I am hopeful that when my children get just a little bit older some of my brain cells will return.  I am hopeful.



The title of this blog is Random Kitchen.  It was named to represent my kitchen that is randomly stocked with items that follow the sales of the week or month.   I cook based on what I have available and/or what can be purchased at the lowest cost.  I rarely decide on what to make/cook and then purchase the ingredients.  I have my staples and easy week night meals, but they are either consistent sale items OR items that never go on sale (fish/shrimp).  Let me take this moment to mention......just because I follow sales and match coupons does not mean that I ONLY purchase sale items or items with coupons.  My family eats plenty of fresh veggies and fruits ( I try to follow them in season for the best prices) as well as seafood and other meats.  I save money on everything else to balance out the cost of these items.  With that being said.....I do not buy whatever those educated in healthy eating may say is the best purchases...for example, organic, gluten free, ect.  I don't understand those things and its just not my thing.  Sometimes Brookshires has organic veggies on sale......I will buy it then.  :)  Otherwise I stick to the traditional thought of providing balanced meals.



Sometimes I blog about saving money, sometimes meals, my kids, and even random thoughts on life.  The best way to describe this blog is RANDOM.  Sometimes it will help you save money, sometimes you my feel like you wasted your time seeing another picture of a meal I cook all.of.the.time.  I've tried being consistent before and its just too stressful for me.......so I gave in to the randomness.



Happy reading!!



Here is a quick example of what you may read about.....
