This week has been strange.

Monday I went to the .99 store and bought $5.00 worth of food: 2 bags of salad and 2 lbs of butter.  The rest of the food we've eaten this week has come out of the stockpile or we've gone out for business (we didn't pay for)

Monday:
Breakfast:Oatmeal and coffee
Lunch: (dh is on vacation this week, so I've been making his lunch and leaving it in the fridge) We both had salad
Dinner: we had breakfast for dinner.


Tuesday:
B: DH: oatmeal and fruit, me: nothing (tummy was upset)
snack: Dh brought me  starbucks mocha ($3.85)
L: DH, salad and quesadilla, Me: nothing (I had a doctors appt and missed my lunch hour at work)
D: Business dinner (We didn't pay- hooray!)

Weds:
Breakfast: oatmeal, fruit and tea (both of us)
lunch: DH: leftovers, Me: Office birthday party (salad and pizza)
Dinner: I was sent home with the pizza leftovers since no one else wanted them, so we had pizza and salad


Thursday:
Breakfast: oatmeal, fruit (both of us)
Lunch: Dh: veggie burger with a spinach salad, Me: oatmeal and fruit (left the lunch I packed for myself at home :( )- I always have a box of oatmeal in my desk.
Dinner:  Grilled chicken breasts, steamed veggies with balsamic vingrette, quinoa

The rest of the week, our lunches will probably be the same, leftovers from dinner or veggie burgers.  Breakfast will be oatmeal and fruit (we got a really great deal on oatmeal at vons about 6 months ago!).  Dinners are going to probably some shopping this week.  I was just told I need to lower my sodium intake, so a lot of our stockpiled food I can't eat now.  It throws a monkey wrench into the works, but I know we'll be able to stay under budget!
