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 .

better eating, worse spending

Breakfast: Last multi-grain pancake, an egg, an orange ($0)
Lunch: In order to avoid the draw of Hot Pockets decided to open up another can of beans.  Lunch was bean quesadilla with grapes (a new purchase) ($1.44)
Grocery store:  I went to dinner at my friend Heather's house but decided to not be totally stingy and bring bread and dessert so I had to go to the grocery store, I bought myself some milk too ($8.18)
Dinner: Heather grilled veggies and bratwurst, I made strawberry shortcake.  It's good to eat with people that feed me balanced meals. ($0)
