Like always, if you would like any recipes, let me know, and I will post them! Also, as soon as I get back from the store today, I will let you know my total cost! Remember the goal....$100.00 or less total spent on food each week (includes groceries and eating out)!

**Okay...just got home from the store. Had to fight the droves of people shopping for Easter! My total was $76.09. So....that leaves $23.91 left for th rest of the week. Going to be difficult, but I think we can do it! :)
