The "Best Laid Plans Go Awry"
Edition......
Here's what was planned last week--
Sunday--Hamburgers, Green Beans, Roasted Potatoes and Onions
Monday--Cheddar Broccoli Soup(garden broccoli)
Tuesday--Tacos (I had leftover roasted potatoes and onions instead.)
Wednesday--Eggplant Parmesan(sauce using garden tomatoes), Caprese Salad, Garlic Bread
Thursday--Roasted Chicken, Carrots, Onions, Stuffing
Friday--London Broil/Green Beans Stir fry, Rice
Saturday--Fish fry, Beets, Coleslaw
And here's what actually got eaten--
Sunday--Hamburgers, Green Beans, Roasted Potatoes and Onions
Monday--Cheddar Broccoli Soup(garden broccoli)
Tuesday--Tacos (I had leftover taters and onions.)
Wednesday--Eggplant Parmesan, Green Salad(leftover greens, garden tomatoes)
Thursday--leftovers(I had broccoli soup.)
Friday--Chinese take-out
Saturday--leftovers (I had a turkey sandwich.)
So Wed., Thur., and Fri. meals are moved yet again to this coming week
Here's this week's meal plan---
On the shopping list......Hubs already bought steak rolls, provolone cheese, lettuce, a loaf of wheat bread(for his lunch sandwiches), so I still need, frozen pizzas, a ball of fresh mozzarella and basil, milk, perhaps some more broccoli and who knows what else! If Hubs feels like doing a major shop I'll say $100 for this plus picking up some more deals for this week to use next week. Goodness knows I have only spent just over $103 to this point in September of the food budget, due to not being able to get to the store with my foot, so I can afford a big shopping trip. 8-)
That's what's appearing on the kitchen table this week here at Chez Sluggy.

As for food spending last
week.....I spent $29.44 on $65.36 worth of groceries at 1 store. Actually Hubs spent the $ as I was in no shape to go shopping from Wednesday on.
As for food waste, we had a cantaloupe go bad since I was indisposed and nobody else it seems can clean a cantaloupe so we could eat it. 8-( A hunk of my homemade bread also got too stale to eat so it became squirrel food.
