I spent $102 at JoAnn this AM.  I didn’t NEED to make my own costumes for our show, but being larger, hard to fit, etc. I decided I’d feel better if I did.  I have been planning to make costumes for the ren faire and every year I don’t start in time…so I want to…

Pre-camp breakast, $8.26 at Jack in the Box.  Their breakfast sandwiches are WAY overpriced. I met my oldest for a scary Dr’s appointment that turned out not to be scary…we went to Ihop to celebrate.  She offered to treat but I didn’t want her to spend the $$, so I spent $28. We needed a…

Katie goes to drama camp a few times a year…just a week of full days of camp at our local community theater.  She loves it.  Our splurge has been the breakfasts, which would have been less expensive if hubby and I had the willpower to NOT also get a breakfast item, but alas…we’re weak.  Since…

Today I’m making a few batches of rolls in sandwich and hot dog size and maybe, just maybe, I’ll try another bread recipe that might be less dense. I don’t have any shopping or billpaying planned, but I did spend a crazy amount of time on the phone with PennyMac and USAA this AM, because…

I was pretty good today.  I went to Fry’s, where I spent $63 on groceries/household/personal.  This included stocking up on 24 bottles of Powerade (44 cents each for the 30oz and it’s the ONLY thing that really works when I get really bad headaches), some sparkling water (six 88 cent bottles), body wash ($1.50 each…

I baked bread and rolls.  The rolls were amazing and the bread was a little dense.  Or a lot dense.  It’s great for eating warmed with a little butter but a bit…um…dense for sandwiches.  I’m considering sticking with the roll recipe and making slightly larger rolls for sandwiches…and maybe experiementing with morphing it into a…

Heading into day five and thinking about filling in some blanks with food these next couple weeks. One lasagna down, one still in the freezer. Pork tenderloins gone, but provided two generous dinners, so yay. Two chicken enchilada casseroles, still in the freezer.  Moving one to fridge to defrost.  I’d love to grab a bag…
