- I hope you all enjoy this video and all the others. I am just your ordinary struggling mama that has to be frugal and intentional with the way we live and that also includes us as a family utilizing our local food pantries to help supplement our grocery budget. With the ever rising cost of groceries and the economy in general we all need a helping hand up at times.
There should be no shame in getting the help that we all need at some time in our life.
Come along and see what we received from the food pantry today. If you are in need of assistance please look below for some food resources to get you started.

Great haul! 🍅🥑🫐
Love watching your hauls.
Thank you
Hey! I enjoy the sugar free Hawaiian Punch water flavor pouches myself, so I am glad u got some for work . Great food bank haul ! I love that u got some stir fry items!!! And I must say something about that absolutely adorable dragon tee shirt ! So stinkin" cute ! LOVE it ! Hey, is this a fun fashion channel now as well ???? LOL! :)
Thank you, I love the sugar free water flavor pouches, it really does help me to drink more water and I now only have a diet soda occasionally not even every day anymore. I love my cute tops. I am happy to know you like it as well.
Another awesome haul Amber! Lots of goodies 😊
Thank you so much!!! 😊
Cute sweater / jumper. Great haul. The babies are huge and loving life, they love cheerios / generic cereal to hideaway.
My first impression, too!
Thank you 😊 that’s awesome!!! I bet they are a joy to have.
Great stir fry ingredients! I refer to my daughter's long term boyfriend as "my pretend son-in-law ".
hahah, that is cute, he's part of the family now.
Good haul Amber 😊😂❤😂😂
Thank you
Awesome haul 😊love your sweatshirt have a great night 🌸
Thank you 😊
I'm jealous of all that cheese you've been getting!
Girl, I'm telling you, It's like the food pantry gods know that I have a love for cheese, I rarely ever have to purchase cheese from the store anymore.
God bless you Amber and your family. ❤
Thank you 😊
Wow what a great haul!!❤❤❤❤❤
Yes we were blessed with lots of goodies.
Hey Amber and Andrew!! Nice haul ❤🐶
@@joannaazar7396 thank you 😊 Andrew said thank you 🐶
Every little bit counts. I think it is very helpful for you and your family.
Thank you and yes it all adds up and helps out!!
Great haul. Love the sweatshirt! 🦖
Thank you! I love dinosaurs!
Awesome food haul❤🎉 every little bit helps friend!! Hugs!!❤
I agree, a little bit goes a long way. Thank you my friend😊
Also you can freeze cheese in case you didn't know
Yes!!! Thank you for that reminder!!
Those are not bananas they're plantains you cut them in pieces and you fry them then you squash them and fry them again make some garlic oil olive oil and put it over the drizzle it they're considered Puerto Rican food hope you enjoy much love from Michigan
That's a great idea, thanks for sharing!
😊❤😊❤😊❤
🩷😊🩷😊
Just a heads up those bananas will take several weeks to go yellow. Be patient, eventually they get there
Thank you 😊 that is nice to know!!!
The homestyle bakes ingredients are probably packed separately and could be individually added to something else.
I wonder if the ham could be crisped up and used as a sub for bacon bits?
Potatoes, ham, and cheese sounds like a good casserole. Think copycat Cracker Barrel cheesy hashbrown casserole, also funeral potatoes and funeral sandwiches. I know it sounds bad but search for "funeral recipes" They are comfort food at a bad time meant to feed a crowd.
Thank you 😊 that is a great option with the home style bakes. Hmmm never thought about looking up funeral recipes. Thank you that ham potatoes and cheese sound amazing. I may have to give it a try.
Those cut up tender line pieces would be great with a gravy and some fettuccine
Ohhh that’s on the lines of what I was thinking but having them with noodles sounds even better!!!! Thank you 😊
You can use the pork in the stir fry.
@@janetfuhrmaneck3149 I hat a fantastic idea!!’ Thank you 😊
Do you freeze the burritos and sandwich for a later lunch or do you plan to eat it the same day?
I do typically freeze the burritos and sandwiches as they are already frozen at the food pantry.
@@MamaToAll oh okay I didnt know they were frozen already. I always struggle with eating everything before it goes bad
I use the pork cut up as meat in my stir fry that what we are having for dinner tonight
What a fantastic idea!! Thank you 😊
Nice food haul! Have a wonderful week! Do you know how long the packages of small mustard last?
Quite a long time, because they have vinegar.
They typically last a very long time. I’m not sure if I’ve ever opened one and it been bad.
The chicken pieces would be great cut up and incorporated in the stir fry.
That’s a great idea!!! Thank you
1:16 I got sick from our food bank giving out recalled food. I was in the hospital for two weeks.
Oh no, I do always check the items I receive to see if there is an active recall on anything. I’m so sorry that happened to you. Glad you are better.
You got some good stuff. We went as the 4:30 and there really wasn’t too much to choose from. I was one of the first to go through. Is it better to go later?
Thank you, this is actually from last week, my videos are one week behind due to editing purposes. I have found that it really doesn’t matter when you go through I have always received great stuff, just have to remember that sometimes I have more to show because I also have josh and sometimes Hannah with me and they both get to shop.
Now if that food has red dye 40 in it that could be another reason why you're getting a lot of some items cause its now banned
That’s a good thing to remember. You could be on to something. I forgot about the ban.
Does your son in law work and contribute towards a household? I'm not sure where you live, but where I'm at in California.It's almost like 2 or 3 families Are living together just to make ends meet. God bless
Hey!!! Yes he works and he does contribute where he can. It really does take a village to survive. I can believe that it would take several families to live together in California. That is where my sister in law live. It’s crazy expensive there.
Hey why are rhe fresh items expired in December and beginning of January? Look at the salad and caesar chicken wrap, also mountain bread January 4th. Just finished the video, all of the fresh items are old. Is this an old haul?
Many many items including fresh are good way past the best by date. That's just a suggestion and your nose is always your guide. If items are sealed properly they can last longer than the date stamped on the package. Even the fresh salad.
@marykoufalis7666 over a month old on a chicken sandwich with lettuce, i think it is an old video
@Maariieeeeee good catch.. Maybe you'll get a reply and a clarification.
@@Maariieeeeee hey, so I wouldn’t consider it an old video but I found out a while back that with me needing to record and edit videos it sometimes could take it a while to upload and made it a very long night so when you are seeing the video it is typically last weeks food bank. So this food bank was from last Sunday 1/26. Even then some of the items are out of date. I will typically check everything really good and make sure there is no mold or anything on the bread and freeze it for later use and the sandwiches and wraps I always typically ended up needing to remove the lettuce or tomato as they typically aren’t any good. Thank you for asking.
