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 .

Happy Halloween

I've been really slacking on writing, but don't worry I haven't spent money.  Meals this week consisted of such lovely things as quinoa beet salad enchiladas and beans from my boss's housekeeper and I found some plain yogurt that went well with cheerios and honey.

Today I went to Pittsburgh.  My really classy airline snack was bell peppers and a painfully large apple (also from my boss's housekeeper).  ($0)
I had a non-existent layover but my second flight was a little delayed so I was able to run to Starbucks and use a gift card to get a chai and pastry, if only I knew I had a layover and maybe my seatmate who was on his way back from a "spiritual retreat" would have bought me something.  ($0)
Now Nancy will feed me for the rest of the week real food.

Monthly Total: $21.08! And mostly on potlucks.  This is great for my averages but is really becasue my family was here and bought me food.
