Today was all about finally doing some much-needed grocery shopping. This is a chore I choose to ignore (heh that rhymed) most of the time but sadly, we were completely out of everything. So off to the store I went. In the middle of the day, no less.
Since Squishy was at work and I had the day off, I saw this as the perfect opportunity to go to the store without him and take my time with it. I didn't make a list, all I had was a desire to finally buy enough groceries to last a full 2 weeks for all 3 meals every day and stay under budget.
And I did it! I really did it. I bought 13 days worth of meals for $51! And best of all, I didn't use a single coupon. I bought it all at full price. Just imagine how much money I might have saved had I used coupons too.
Needless to say, I'm VERY proud of myself on this one.
So tonight, we're making pizza because well, it's easy, the roomies are supposed to be home soon from their big Halloween New Orleans trip so we want to be out of the way in case they want to cook too. This was the easiest way to be sure to be done early. Plus, S isn't feeling well so this is also easy on both of us.
Tomorrow night, I am trying another Pinterest recipe that involves frozen burritos. Sounds totally unhealthy but also wicked delicious. This one just might deserve a photo.
Eat well everyone!
