Breakfast: The morning after grocery shopping is quite exciting. I was lying in bed wondering which oatmeal I should have then it hit me that I now have eggs! One egg, a little ham and gouda with a piece of toast on the side makes for an exciting change in my life. ($0)
Lunch: Leftover lasagna and my last zucchini, I sauteed it to make up for its lack of firmness. ($0)
Dinner: Thursdays I have class in the evening so eat on campus. I had 2 Ak-Mak crackers that I bought in August because the reminded me of my grandpa, an apple sauce (one day the McClures loaded me with extra food they had lying around their house and I came home with quite a few of applesauce cups) and a pear (the Mexican market had them yesterday 2lbs for $.99). I also went to Starbucks and finished off a gift card from a few months back, evidently there wasn't actually enough money on the gift card but the guy said not to worry about it keeping my daily spending at 0 (Thank you!). ($0)
I've decided to start blogging my eating adventures. Mostly because cooking has become increasingly boring lately and this will add some excitement to my life. I'm not that girl who shares what she eats because I have an eating disorder. I don't believe in dieting. I think diets, like budgets, are lame and evil. On that financial note, some may consider me cheap and wonder why I can't afford regular food, this has nothing to do with that. Really I am just trying to be more resourceful so my money can be used for more important things. I decided to put cost next to my meals. If it is something I have in the pantry it's free which I realize isn't super accurate but going forward, if I grocery shop, I'll consider those costs.
