Wow, it's been a while since I officially posted. But, things being what they are, it's time to start up again.
Bear and I decided that we are going to cut or travel and Cons for next year to really cut into our debt and try to get ready for babies. It's kind of scary to think about becoming parents but time hasn't stopped and the years are moving forward at what seems like a faster and faster rate all the time.
So, saving money and paying down debt, full speed ahead! And a big part of this is being very careful about what, how and where we're eating.
We want healthy food that is also frugal. Make items from scratch, with fresh ingredients. Trying to shop on the outside loop of the grocery store. That kind of thing. We're trying- hit and miss, a failure here and there- but the effort will make changes to how we move forward and how we behave in the future. Which is a good thing.
We are keeping to the "enchiladas twice a week" thing because, well, Bear likes them. We choose low fat alternatives to higher fat items in the recipe and it does stretch across more than one meal for the guy. As long as I keep feeding him his favorite food, he's willing to let me experiment and try expanding our menu options.
