When it comes to grocery shopping, I’m generally in and out as quickly as possible. I also choose shop at the stores nearest to my home, and generally don’t venture out to see what other stores offer. My friends had raved to me about Fry’s–part of Kroger family of stores–so when I was approached with an opportunity to check out their seasonal patio furniture selection I was happy to accept!
First of all, Fry’s was HUGE and had an incredible selection! They even had a book section, complete with rich-looking wooden shelving. While wandering in that section, I really felt like I was in a bookstore, not a grocery store!
Finally, I found it. In the midst of pantry merchandise was an oasis of outdoor furniture, complete with an open umbrella. An older gentleman had spotted this little retreat as well, and relaxed in a cushioned rocker. I snapped some images to share the selection with you, but what was most notable were the prices. These pieces are just downright affordable, and the selection includes options for just about any amount of space from a larger dining table with umbrella and padded chairs to a smaller bistro set for a balcony.
The very first thing that caught my eye was this Catalina 5 Piece Dining Set. The collection includes a very attractive neutral table and four chairs with cushions. What a wonderful set for hosting outdoor meals! Umbrella is sold separately for $39.99. Catalina 5 Piece Dining Set retails for $299.99!
For those with tinier outdoor spaces, the Orchards 3 Piece Balcony Set is the perfect choice! Ideal for romantic candle-lit meals for two on a highrise balcony, this set features a 27″ glass top table with dining chairs. Each piece is sold separately, so you can add as many chairs as you’d like! Orchards 3 Piece Balcony Set Retails For $119.97.

I’ve been looking for an outdoor bench for quite some time. I’ve always enjoyed hanging out in the front yard while my kids play, but right now I have no chairs to relax in! This bench is a beautiful bronze-tone that is perfectly at home here in the Southwest. Retail price $69.99.
I love sprinkling little solar-powered decorations throughout my yard! When I moved, I left behind my pretty little garden baubles. I was so happy to see these adorable little solar powered hummingbirds and butterflies! Retail price $19.99 each.
Who doesn’t like s’mores on a cool spring evening? This portable firepit is a mere $34.99, and helps keep the patio nice and warm!
There are even MORE beautiful choices than these available, so be sure to head into your local Fry’s or Kroeger to see the entire selection!

Maybe you had a few too many chocolate candies for Valentine’s Day, or maybe you’re watching what you eat as part of a New Year’s Resolution. Regardless of the reason, it’s always tough to stay on a plan for a long time if there’s no room for a treat. I had heard about Halo Top from friends, and was itching to try it myself, so when the brand recently got in touch and offered me a sample I was so happy! I chose plain old classic Vanilla Bean when I shopped, as it had the lowest carbohydrate count per serving available at my local grocery store.
Nutrition information for 1/2 cup serving of Vanilla Bean: Calories, 60 (so yes… the entire pint is only 240 calories), Fat 1.5g, Carbohydrate 11g, Sugars 4g, and Protein 6g!
Overall I thought: YUM YUM! This product truly gives the satisfaction of a treat, without the depression of a sugar-binge! The overall consistency of the product was a bit lighter than standard ice cream. To me it was more like an ice milk dessert. The vanilla flavor was amazing and it truly was delicious!
Other flavors offered include: Chocolate, Lemon Cake (I want to try this one next), Strawberry, Mint Chip, Chocolate Mocha Chip, Birthday Cake, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Peanut Butter Cup, Cookies & Cream, Sea Salt Caramel, S’mores, Pistachio, Oatmeal Cookie, Chocolate Almond Crunch, Black Cherry, and Red Velvet!
Retail price varies, but at my local Fry’s the price was $5.50.
