I have a success story to share! Yesterday we were out shopping and I hit the Eat at Home wall. I wanted seafood and I wanted it now so we decided to go to a local restaurant for dinner after shopping. I was looking for gifts for our friends’ grandchildren. They’re from the UK but love visiting us here in Louisiana, especially if we manage to get LSU football tickets! I wanted to get cheerleader outfits for the girls but couldn’t find anything in my price range. I was fretting until I realized that if we skipped our $$ dinner we could use that money to buy the nicer uniforms at the university bookstore. Yay! We scrounged dinner at home and today I’m heading over to LSU to buy some seriously cute things for two very cute little girls with the savings.
I didn’t exactly stick to this week’s plan because we had two nights when either we were out or no one was hungry. I dropped the shrimp dish (no shrimp in the freezer but I was missing seafood!) and the jambalaya. Still, we didn’t eat out! Next week is a short one, we leave for Disney early Friday morning.
My goal for next week is to use up all of the produce in the fridge before we leave.
10/20-24
Sunday
Grill
Sausage
Bone in chicken breast
Grilled veggies (peppers, zucchini, onions)
(Almost) Meatless Monday

(Making a big pot of red beans and will freeze most for dinners at Disney)
Taco Tuesday
Mexican Stuffed peppers
Yellow squash
Wednesday
Ham
Green beans
Apple crisp
Thursday
Clean out fridge
Friday (Disney Day!)
We’re towing our 5th wheel down and will stop for the night near Ocala.
Breakfast
Cheddar biscuits
Apples
Lunch
Ham/cheese wraps
Carrots
Cookies
Dinner (in camper)
