I'm sure you all will be disappointed but, my grocery budget
update this month isn't much of an update.
I have to confess, I just wasn't into it at all last month. Losing Old Man Kitty knocked me off my game
at the beginning of the month and I was not my usual self. It took me a couple weeks to get back in the
game.
A quick stop at Fred Meyer after work one night |
My lack of enthusiasm for grocery shopping turned out to be a good
thing, however. You all know I'm trying
to clear out our garage freezer in order to better use up what we have and get that puppy defrosted. Not shopping
forced us to do exactly that. We were
able to use up a bunch of odds and ends in the kitchen freezer and several
items out of the chest freezer.
A little Wal-Mart haul |
I did shop some for fresh produce, cream, yogurt and I bought a
ham for Easter. Not much and I have
absolutely no idea of exactly what I spent.
I do know if was less than usual.
A quick trip into Winco and a jug of laundry detergent I picked up at Walgreens |
Next month I'll be back in the swing of things and that is
good. I've got a party to put on and the
rest of the food that needs to be purchased for that, company is coming and we
have a family vacation to plan for. Lots
of good stuff coming up. And the plan is
not to go over budget next month too.
Wish me luck!
You do not need luck!! You know what to do and you do it. It's called planning and you've done it so long that it comes naturally to you. I will wish you a wonderful May and tell you to enjoy it all. ;0)
