That’s true!! And your food is probably way healthier.

And I definitely spend a lot. I think the problem is we have so many around here and also I think I am maybe a little bored or something so I go driving around for hours and/or go in stores and spend money or order stuff. I think I need to find more hobbies and/or a job lol

And in summer, we have wild raspberries and a wild blueberry bush but I have never eaten any of them. I need to start. DB&FSIL have a big raspberry patch in their yard too cause my grandma planted it a long time ago and they kept it. So I can eat those too. I really should start eating that stuff.

I think there are a lot of ways we can cut back. Like for one just simple self control/impulse control and not buying whatever I see but also making lists and/or doing big shops instead of us all going. And also, maybe more importantly, going to cheaper grocery stores/trying to find deals and not just the closest store. And I think stocking up/buying at once instead of smaller amounts or lots of little trips. But we also eat a lot of meat, dairy, and bread. I think cutting back on or cutting out bread and dairy might be a good idea. Cause we go through a lot of milk, cheese, yogurt, etc. which adds up and really doesn’t do any good. Except maybe like goat milk yogurt or something. But because of all that and the fact that we have 3 people, I don’t think we will ever get down to $20 a week or less than $100 a month or anything like that, but I think we could maybe get somewhat close. But I also need to clean out the fridge and the cabinets because we have a lot of processed stuff in there and also no room in the freezer or cabinets atm. And I think we can also save by cooking way more.

Chicken breasts...I brown them on both sides while I'm cutting up bell pepper, onion and garlic.
I take the chicken out to slice and throw the bell pepper, onion and garlic in.
Today I used a can of mushrooms instead of fresh.
Add chicken back along with two cans of stewed tomatoes.
Simmer while you cook linguine noodles.
Easy peasy.

I use garlic powder, pepper, salt and crushed red pepper flakes.

I like it spicy so I add extra crushed red peppers to my bowl.
It's good if you have a stuffy nose...it helps you be able to breath.

Gosh I'm freezing today.

It is food like this that makes me wish I wasn't such a picky eater. I have a thing with texture and some foods texture... I just can't do it. I will gag. It looks so comforting and like it would be yummy, but I just can't do it. I can't force myself.
