Day 9 - January meal plan

January 9th, 2009


I did very little today. The boys and I picked Dave up from the church for lunch and although I had plans of going to the grocery store after I chose to take the boys home for a nap instead. I also napped. . .it was nice. :-) Tonight Dave and I planned out our menu for the rest of January. I had been wanting to make monthly meal plans for a long time but never did it. I am excited about having it all figured out and being able to do one big shopping trip for the whole month. Since we've been gone for 2 1/2 weeks and just deposited two pay checks today we are ahead on grocery money and we're going to hit Sams Club tomorrow. We're going to stock up on a ton of stuff we use regularly. My hope is that we will visit the grocery store less often and in turn spend less cause there will be fewer spontaneous purchases.
