Grocery money doesn't get dipped into - the entertainment money does! Along with the hobby money, household money, vacation account, etc. Not to say that I don't overdo the grocery budget - especially these days! Are sweet peppers massively expensive in the lower 48 too?Meli n Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266138921396622842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-63173820983256090002008-09-17T15:02:00.000-05:002008-09-17T15:02:00.000-05:00I find that eating out is a vicious cycle.

I do it once, and then instead of feeling inspired about cooking, I just feel like eating out again the next night.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441284094171626181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-89941552247447453282008-09-15T20:51:00.000-05:002008-09-15T20:51:00.000-05:00Since July, I've been trying REALLY HARD to stick ...Since July, I've been trying REALLY HARD to stick to a monthly food budget. Unfortunately, I've been exceeding it by week three. This is with meticulously planned menus and everything - not having meat with every meal, more beans, more potatoes, etc. You know, all the tricks I've read about here and elsewhere. I'm trying REALLY hard. <BR/><BR/>So. Yeah, I know what you are saying.zdoodlebubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15827443812936944785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-47654387373057602702008-09-13T11:44:00.000-05:002008-09-13T11:44:00.000-05:00Been there...

I hate those days if trying to figure out what to make!!!<BR/><BR/>I need to figure out a really tasty gfcf gravy base from Scratch.... Because now I'm sol if we don't have packets or soup on hand.<BR/><BR/>Cheers!<BR/>JamieManic Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10841239934904882305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-45142180614934081072008-09-13T08:17:00.000-05:002008-09-13T08:17:00.000-05:00LOL - E with the garlic toast, too funny!

She wouldn't survive my house...<BR/><BR/>When the cupboard is bare here, I make white rice, mix in whatever is in the fridge (or maybe just salt & garlic powder & onion powder). Or eggs - we always have eggs. The benefit of not being able to eat anything? Eating out is NOT an option. :)<BR/><BR/>Don't worry, you'll get back on track!Li loves Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16000606202641830931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8064514075916057092.post-39299651719740870652008-09-13T08:10:00.000-05:002008-09-13T08:10:00.000-05:00A.B.S.O.L.U.T.E.L.Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! why just this...A.B.S.O.L.U.T.E.L.Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! why just this week actually.... lol I totally used up grocery money last week when I was trying to stock up on some groceries with good prices...

I'm a gf college student, so I'm not on a meal plan and make all my own food. I also have no job, which means that when my roommate and I run out of toilet paper and it's my turn to buy, it comes out of my food money. Plus, I've been buying a lot of soda - have to stop that pronto!Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09052393907044397588noreply@blogger.com
