And Mrs. Cheap? She doesn’t even do the dishes. 😂

John’s first IKEA trip and we’re officially LOST.
This isn’t a store. This is a maze.
Send meatballs and map.

Mrs. Cheap’s friend gave her a TON of FREE apples 🍎
So… what would you make first?
Pie 🥧, butter 🍯, or chips 🍏?

Farm fresh or bust 🐓🥚
Mrs. Cheap’s egg hookup has John convinced it’s the ONLY way to buy eggs. 🍳
Would you go farm fresh too?

The Iowa State Fair’s most iconic star? 🐄 A cow… made of butter! 🧈

She’s been the fair’s most photogenic celebrity for 100+ years. The Famous Butter Cow is the ultimate Iowa State Fair tradition — equal parts quirky and iconic.

Barksdale Cookies — the sweetest tradition at the Iowa State Fair 🍪 Cup or bucket? (No wrong answers.)

Fresh-baked, fair-famous, and a bargain you can actually feel good about.

John was hyped for the new Costco calzone… until Mrs. Cheap found one ingredient that ruined it for her. Did he still try it? 🍕😅

The first day of Iowa sweet corn season is basically a state holiday 🌽🎉 And yes—it came from the back of a truck in a parking lot, just like it should. Fresh, local, and sweeter than summer itself!#IowaSweetCorn #CornSeason #MidwestTradition #FreshFromTheTruck #FarmFreshFlavor #OnlyInTheMidwest
