I got to spend the whole day with my little sister yesterday. To start, we drove out into the country to shop at a designer barn sale. We got some good buys, and Kara picked out two early shower gifts from me to her :)
After the barn sale, we stopped at a local Mennonite grocery shop that Kara had been to before. While she was buying deli meat, I perused the aisles and found two uncommon items that I've seen in paleo recipes. The blackstrap molasses I had looked for at Trader Joe's this week with no success, and the arrowroot powder costs an arm and a leg for a 1-lb bag. The beauty of it was that these two items together cost me $2.26! I'm not sure yet what I'll use them for, but now I have something to play with this week :)
We then went to dinner with our grandpa and Kara's fiance, and ended the night at a comedy club with both our men. With her busy schedule as a nurse and grad school student, being able to spend so much time together was a precious thing.
