Lost my mind

The last few days have been full of quick meals like vegetarian chili, food from the freezer, tuna sandwiches and homemade French fries.

Some really yummy scrambled egg wraps with raspberry salsa and Morningstar vegetarian sausage.

Child has an ear infection again so we're limiting dairy.

Today we ventured out to use a discount coupon for 6 Dunkin donuts for $3.

We ate them all.

Today is partially a celebration since we did fabulously with the September grocery budget. We spent about $120 on dining out, which included my husband's birthday dinner and several highly discounted Starbucks drinks.

We got pizza once and maybe steak sandwiches once.

Grocery budget will come out to less than $150. But the freezer is totally empty, the garden depleted and a friend recently brought fresh broccoli, cauliflower and green beans. And crackers.
