Another post without pictures but with a menu.

I promise I won't do this much longer.  I just need a week or so of keeping track of what we're making/eating/spending/blah blah blah so that I can try and figure out some math, here.

Today is Sunday, and that means church and rest, which means that our usually fairly balanced diet kinda goes out the window a bit.
I have no clue what David ate for breakfast, but Samuel and I shared a bagel with cream cheese on it.  I can't imagine that our breakfast was more than 75 cents.  Samuel then demolished about a third of a big bag of raisins during the sermon at church this morning, which is about $1 worth of dried grapes.

We came home and David was still at work (he works every few Sundays in the morning) and so the two of us split a bowl of pineapple slices before the boy went off for a nap.  Once the three of us were together again we had stew that had been simmering in the slow cooker all morning.  I used a small cabbage, a gigantic carrot, three potatoes left at the bottom of the last bag of potatoes I bought, some ground beef, the stock from the Christmas duck, and any number of little things I found in the fridge.  It probably ran me about $5 to make.

In the afternoon Samuel and I baked a loaf of apple raisin bread and we all ate that and more stew throughout the evening before going to bed.

It was one of those days.
