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 .

stigma

Breakfast: I had some pancake mix someone gave me a few months back and then, in honor of my dad, I added some apple that I was given yesterday (I cut out the worm).  One batch of batter is a ton so I'll be eating pancakes for awhile. ($0)
Snack: My friend Sara just started college so I wanted to take her to coffee. You know how King David says he won't offer anything that didn't cost him? I have to remind myself that sometimes. ($7.38)
Lunch: I made up some baked burritos utilizing only ingredients from last week's taco bar surplus. ($0)
Dinner: Community group dinner.  It was Italian theme and I made an apple crisp, becasue I had apples and everything else needded and they probably eat apples in Italy, right?  I brought home a loaf of bread, a bunch of pasta, and a good amount of watermelon.  So yes, I think I'm stigmatized as that person.  You know who I'm talking about. Usually it's someone homeless, or at least a guy.  ($0)
