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.
On my sister's recommendation I stole the title from Carrie Sun's blog on hospital eating .

I love potlucks

Breakfast: Last night Heather and I made some vegan, gluten-free, almond "cookies."  I was running a little late for church so had some of those. It's not actually eating cookies for breakfast because I'm not sure how to actually categorize them. ($0)
Lunch:  Potluck! I actually brought something this time.  Since I evidently have no shame I made my potluck dish at Heather's using all her ingredients.  It was purple quinoa. I think it's delicious but I think some people are scared of purple food so I'll be eating this all week long, which I'm totally OK with. ($0)
Grocery Store: I hear vegetables are good for me so I had to go buy some and steel cut oats. ($7.15)
Dinner: There was A LOT of potluck food so that covered this meal too.  ($0)
Weekly total: $10.56
