well....

This is most of what I had to start with on hand... the left over pizza was good for two meals... the blueberries lasted for 3... the left over fajita stuff for 2... well... one... one good in theory but not in execution.

I only spent $17 on groceries this week because of having things on hand as you can see.

I have come to the conclusion that I need to up the goal to $30 a week because I will not always have leftovers and staples on hand to work with. I had a few separate budgets this week as well so I don't feel that I really did a good job with it.

So... will shelve the project in favor of just making sure to keep my fast food eating under control, which does allow me to actually focus on having a focused grocery list. I haven't filled up my fridge with frivolous purchases this week, which has been refreshing.

This week: company coming on Friday ... and need to make a cheesecake for work. So will resume my goal then of trying to post more this month for sure. I may make July a challenge month of trying to blog every day - or not, because I do have a vacation in there and not all of it will have a good internet connection. hmm... we'll see.
