Our aim was to leave Enterprise by 7:30...That way we arrived in LaGrande in time to shop at Grocery Outlet for an hour before Pams appointment...We have done this for many years and it works well, the store isn't crowded with people and we take out time shopping...The store has had a major "renovation" and Pam kept prodding me along, so she wouldn't be late...It was mind boggling, trying to take in all the new stuff...We love that store.
Lunch for us was again at Asian Fusion, where we ask for extra veggies in our usual Thai dishes and bring half of it home for another meal.
Next stop is BiMart, then we brave the crowd at Walmart for a few items...A quick stop at Coffman's for bulk pectin (I must get started on making jam from my frozen fruit) and frozen pie cherries, that make delicious pies!..Also on their shelves was blackstrap molasses, priced much lower than "Gramma's." I use it in my bread instead of sugar, so I snagged a couple of jars!..Last item, was thin sliced pastrami for Ruben Sandwiches...I would usually buy this for Herb, as he loved pastrami and cheese for a snack...We vow to make a trip each month, especially in winter, if the roads are good!
It was a good day, scenic trip and wonderful coming home...The first sight of the mountains always takes my breath away!..Hugs To All...OWAV:)
I will try your idea of using molasses instead of sugar when making bread, thanks!

DeleteGreat adventure, Coffman's always my favorite when we head to you. Can't beat the blackstrap. Your mountains do the same for me.
