Well, I
have been sticking to my Dutch Method of grocery shopping pretty well.
On Monday, I picked up some things to get us through the week: Cameron's
lunches, milk, and eggs. I also picked up Monday night's dinner, which
consisted only of pre-seasoned Italian ground beef and diced tomatoes
since I already had noodles, sauce and garlic at home; I also cooked up
the last three pieces of tilapia. That all came out to $52.76. Tuesday I
made the fried chicken, MacNCheese, and Brussel sprouts- all I had to
buy was the chicken. I also picked up a few more snacks for the house so
that grocery bill was $12.97. On Wednesday, I'm making string beans
seasoned with turkey necks- my favorite- and corn bread. That's all I'm
having, but I'm giving Cameron the last leftover drumstick with his. I
also picked up a family size bag of Bird's Eye Viola! Garlic Chicken for
Thursday's dinner. Viola! is my favorite frozen food and my one of my
favorite foods of all time- I'm a simple girl. There's meat, vegetables,
pasta, sauce, and it's perfectly seasoned (Spices are my nemesis). It
comes in several different meal choices and most importantly, my son
will eat it! I personally think its the best thing invented since the
washing machine. Getting back on track, my grocery bill which covers
Wednesday and Thursday came to $19.79. So far we are at $85.52 for
groceries this week and there is one more day left. Friday, I asked my
grandmother to teach me how to make her famous dressing. I know there is
no holiday, but I need that stuff in my life more than twice a year.
She is going to tell me what I need to buy for that and I will add that
to the total later.
