Chris and I went grocery shopping this evening! YAY!!!! We have not gone grocery shopping in almost a month and a half!!! :O (Well, we did pick up some milk, and butter, and bananas and stuff every now and then, but we didn't do our monthly shopping for over a month and a half.) I love grocery shopping. Chris and I ALWAYS go together and really have fun doing it. I usually make the list and check things off as we get them (I also have a bad habit of putting extra things in the cart :]). Usually we spend about $160 dollars a month on groceries, but tonight we spent $240!!!! AHHH! We NEVER spend that much! We had to buy some cleaning supplies, body wash, face cleanser, and other stuff like that which we don't usually buy every month, so its really no big deal. Also, we have been trying to buy better quality products and not just what is cheaper. A couple months ago, Chris and I started buying a different kind of seafood everytime with do our shopping. This is pretty neat because not only do we get to eat something yummy, but we are learning new ways to prepare the seafood. Last month we bought some scallops (MY FAVORITE SEAFOOD), and this month we bought some shrimp, and MORE scallops! I can't wait to find a new recipe!
ANYWAYYYYY, we had a great shopping excursion, and lots of delish treats to last us a month!
Thanks for reading!

Mal!! This is outrageous to me!! Our grocery budget is $400.00 a month, and I go over EVERY month!!! How the heck do you do it, and also, COME DO MY GROCERY SHOPPING!!!! And I don't think it's just b/c we have kids, b/c Aurora eats like a bird, and we really only have Jocey about 6 days out of the month!! I wish we only spent what you spent!!! We've been trying meal planning, where we have a schedule for what we're eating every night, otherwise, I end up going to the store every few days, when really, we have plenty of stuff to cook at home. Anyway, I love you :)
