Grocery shopping on lunch break:
string beans 0.47lb $1.41
1/2 dozen eggs $3.49
potatoes for the salad 1.15lb $1.14
cucumbers 1.45lb $2.16
grape tomatoes $1.99
beefsteak tomatoes 1.72lb (price mistake?) $1.70
can of wild tuna $3.49
olives 0.45 lb $3.67
mustard $3.99
rye roll $0.85
romaine hearts $3.99
6 limes (for margaritas) $1.98
strawberries (desert) 16oz $2.99
Total: $32.85
This will make:
to make Greek salad for 2 today (I still have feta and onion at home)
Nicose salad for 3 Tuesday (2 for dinner and 1 for DH to take for lunch next day)
after which I will be left with 3 eggs and the rest of the mustard. (Unless I choose to make popovers with the salad, in which case I'll only have mustard left)
No wonder I want to drink margaritas!
buying enough sirloin for 2 meals would be cheaper.
