Saving Your Life

You know when you never knew you weren't living until you started living better?

Just happened in my life.  And better living became known as RELAY FOODS.

If you have baby/babies/toddlers/multiples or even a hungry husband let's be real here, going to the grocery store can be so daunting.  Reading all the labels, trying to compare with your list and your recipes while simultaneously trying to keep child/s from eating things, touching things, breaking things, touching each other or any combination of the above mentioned offenses and hearing "I waaaaant dat, I don't waaant dat mommyyyyyy" 56 times before you just throw your coupons to the ground and buy whatever you already have in your cart while trying to make small talk with everyone around you about your freak show and always leaving with an effing balloon that you will not be allowed to throw away until it is laying on the ground (by which time you will have been given another damn balloon) and stickers that end up all over the back seat of your car/bottom of your shoes/butt (and you don't even know it).  Let me tell you, this makes me miss my days of cooking for one as depressing as it sounded at the time.  

I usually lose my mind by the end of a shopping trip and I hate to share this, but there has been more than one occasion where I've loaded up the three kids, the reusable grocery bags, the diaper bag, bottles, snacks, sippy cups, stroller and the partridge in the pear tree, gotten all the way to the grocery store, unloaded all the crap and realized my wallet was sitting at home....or my list.....or my coupons.....but the worst being my wallet (more than once?!?!  Yes.  Face Palm)

So, I am here to tell you, especially if you are blessed with multiples or expecting some (not like for dinner but to give them life from your body) AVOID THE GROCERY STORE AT ALL COSTS.  Relay has amazing, local foods and brand name foods, they have baby "stuff" and they have BEER AND WINE.  They'll deliver it all to you or all you have to do is show up and it's all bagged and ready for you at some quiet location of your choosing (from their list).  I got my first order last week and am so impressed with the quality, taste, and freshness of it all.  

And here 


Use that link and get $50 worth of groceries for $20.  You'll be helping me get a discount, too....which is awesome because I currently spend $100/week on formula.... why am I not still breastfeeding???  Oh honey another day another blog.....  

Just do yourself a favor and stop taking your kids to the grocery store.  Sit at home.  Get your wine delivered.  Then relax and sip.  I won't even wait for the thank you..... ;)
