Week Five

We went a little nuts this week. We spent a little too much money because of lack of time, exhaustion(I didn't feel like making a big meal one night) and the gf is going out of town for 3 days.

I went to the Sunday Santa Monica farmer's market and do'h forgot about the Wednesday farmer's market. I spent $20.

Sunday farmer's market haul:
1. strawberries
2. carrots
3. potatoes
4. roasted cashews
5. dried fruit


Then I headed over to Trader Joe's for soy vanilla milk, mushrooms, Organic tofu and shredded cheese. I spent $10.41.

Pavilions was having a sale and had some good coupons in their weekly news print. We got Silk soy milk, 2 boxes of cheez-its, Gatorade, A&W Root beer, cheese, pizza, an instant Indian dinner, cheese burritos, white corn on the cob. We spent $35.80.

We spent $66.21 on our grocery bill. But to be honest we did splurge and get a Papa John's Pizza Tuesday night. They just reopened the the Papa Johns across the street from our apt. and I love their pizza. Also, I was a big exhausted because I'd locked myself out of our apt. when I took the dog for a walk. So we had to walk 2.5 miles to my gf's work. She gave us a ride home when she got off work. I was a bit pooped after walking Riot that far, so I convinced the gf that we should just do pizza for dinner. Luckily, they were doing a "Grand Re-opening" and their pizza's were only $10. Still a pale in comparasion in what we used to spend each week on food.
