2012 january began going to food pantry supplied by harvesters at trinity independent baptist church. every wednesday evening at 7 pm. sat thru sermon for an hour. went every week til end of 2019. took my grandson a few times. also took him with me to 52nd raytown rd church where you walk thru lines to pick out your own food.
at age 16 i began my grocery shopping journey. quickly learned to watch what i bought closely. had to feed more than just myself.
a few dollars (3 to 5) can buy a dozen eggs, 5 pounds or 10 of white idaho raw potatoes, a pound of bacon,a loaf of bread.
or get chili fixins for 5 bucks. 1 can tomatoes 2 cans beans 1 lb hamburger or other ground meat 1 onion 1/2 pkg williams chili seasoning --its the best--or some cumin and garlic.
or whole raw chicken or package of fresh pork chops or a beef roast. pound of fresh carrots.
sales have been happening every week at grocery stores since before i started shopping. i wish i would have learned how to shop way before i turned 16. thru my effort and willingness to learn i have successfully managed to be able to make lincoln scream if i have to
today we have lots of food and i can cook it.
lotsandlots of food
