I battle with the same thing, a frugal shop compared to all the other mums hauling trolleys FULL of processed and ready made stuff...how can it be that basic food is so damn expensive........but anyway, we are doing the best, I think your shop was a good one...I too loaded up on $1.00 pasta, cant go wrong with that! Just for curiosity I would love to line up behind one of those giant trolley loads and see what the amount comes to when it goes through the check out....it would have to be $300 + surely? well done your menu sounds lovely for the week...Suzannehttp://enchantedthingsprimitives.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676164108751794518.post-47900973020546871982011-07-24T17:45:23.479-07:002011-07-24T17:45:23.479-07:00Wow Stephanie you do well shopping to $100 budget,...Wow Stephanie you do well shopping to $100 budget, i bet it feels good to be harvesting your own food - im really loving it at the minute, hoping this beautiful weather will be around for a bit longer!melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13549068405128511290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6676164108751794518.post-89388612081958873832011-07-24T15:33:06.756-07:002011-07-24T15:33:06.756-07:00Just curious--why did you throw out the rice?

Yes, I think you can find lunch out of things you have. You could dip/fix a lunch before you serve it. I did that. Serve yourself a lunch portion in a container before the food goes on the table. You can also make egg salad sandwich or a little quiche with the egg and bits of veg and meat. Great job.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
