Hopeful Housewife

Ok, so its been a few days, and I’m low on time (which is why it’s been a few days in the first place!)

 I stayed under my 100.00 budget for last week. Friday marked the end of my first week, and I think I came in somewhere around 97.00.  Meals I did not post that have been eaten include

-those delicious fresh mozzarella balls with basil, toasted ciabatta, roma tomato slices, and fresh organic apples

-hummus, ak-mak crackers, and organic greens w/balsamic vinegar and olive oil “dressing”. I bought the greens from the salad bar, only buying what we would eat that day, knowing they’d likely go bad if there were leftovers, and it ended up being just over a dollar for the greens.

Today, I got a special surprise…Something I didn’t expect to find at Whole Foods.

I had just picked up my buffalo eye of round steaks (3.35), Corn on the cob, .65 ea, and about 2 spoonfuls of toasted couscous autumn salad from the deli (2.25) when I hear the kids yell “DADDY!” Apparently the hubs is enjoying our journey so much that he went to the deli to get a slice of mozzarella, basil, and tomato pizza for lunch. He was definately the most fantastic selection in the whole store.

I’ll let ya know how the buffalo cooking goes.
