Day 1 of 31 Days of Nothing...

We started the morning with a homemade breakfast of Yellow Grits topped with diced ham (left over from Friday's meal) and shredded cheddar cheese, whole wheat toast with all natural grape jelly and sweet tea.
Then it was off to the store for a few necessities. I bought a half gallon of almond milk, a gallon of Hickory Hill milk and a dozen eggs for a grand total of $7.38. Lord willing this will be the only shopping trip I will have to make until grocery day on Friday. Our meals could get interesting, but we will not do without.

Our little ones spent the day playing outside on scooters, chasing Sophie and Sara (our two pooches) and just enjoying being kids. I played games on the computer, read (I finished Courting Morrow Little today, a book I highly recommend by the way) and researched frugality.

Lunch was PB and J on whole wheat bread, carrot sticks with ranch and dinner was leftover black eyed peas and macaroni and cheese. Now it is on to movies and family time, life is good!
