    Default Guess what I was given over the last 2 days

    We went to my dh's friend's house for the New Years, and they have a neighbor that works for Martin's Bread. I got about 5 loaves of bread, 4 packs of hamburger rolls, 4-5 packs of dinner rolls, and a few rolls of hot dog buns. Not sure if I have them all accounted for, but all in all, I got two flats of bread for free.
    Today I get a call from my dad. He tells me to come over cause he has something for me. He gave us 2 cases of bacon. (48 packs). So, we have bacon out of our eyeballs. The other day he gave us two bags of popcorn chicken and a big bag of chicken patties too. Free food is always good.
    Could not have come at a better time. With money being so tight, it is nice to know that we have plenty to eat.
