Its Friday & Its Payday

Woot! Im so happy payday is here and its Friday too. Cost co here we come. My list is large. I feel that we are out of everything including ketchup this time. Sheesh! Where did it all go? I still want to go to Ohio this summer and found air fair for $256.00 per person including tax. This is a good price because I have been seeing prices from $300.00 up. Anyways, my whole point of telling you this is that I need to save money. Can I do it? We shall see. I do best if I make a list of all the stuff we need and make a menu for the two weeks. I will share my list incase you need some ideas. Please reply if you have some ideas too.

1. Nachos
2. Ribs, mashed potatoes, corn & greenbeans
3. chicken, mashed potatoes, corn & greenbeans
4. hot dogs, french frys
5. mac & cheese, salad
6. Turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, salad, cranberries
7. beef & broccoli, rice, salad
8. kung pao chicken, rice, salad
9. hamburgers, french fries
10. spaghetti, salad
11. pizza, salad
12. Teriyake Chicke, rice, salad
13. lasagna
14. tacos
15. fish & shrimp, salad

Well I went over two weeks but sometimes, you get tired of one thing so you can have something else. Mashed potatoes are a great filler. Salad is so good for you and I like to add things to it like cranberrys and nuts. Mikala loves corn & greenbeans so I know it will get eaten. The pizza is take out and the fish is only if we make it to the fish market. Its sad really because its just down the street but we always forget about it. Also mikala doesnt go for fish but she likes tuna from the can so I do two dinners that day.
