skipped breakfast (bad, bad girl)

$7.95 - Lunch - Korean spicy tofu soup (not worth it, will know for the future. I love Korean food, but that wasn't it.)

$2 -- impulse "hi-chew" purchase at the counter (bad, bad girl)

Dinner. Sichuanese restaurant dinner with MIL. Normally she pays, but we should occasionally. So we paid yesterday.

$60 for a spicy hot-pot fish, ox tripe appetiser and some Cantonese dish she ordered. and 2 beers. Not so bad. But we had to venture out all the way to Brooklyn and got home way past baby's bed time.

Oh, and we got red envelopes for DH's birthday. We still get them even though we are married and have a baby. And for some reason I always get an equal envelope if DH gets one. So even though it was his birthday that passed, I also got $200. So we got $400 in gift money.

I am saving my $200 for guilt free shopping when I have my next vacation some place fun, like Singapore or Shanghai.

So total $70 spent on food
$400 received in gift money

I also received a $40 bottle of wine as a gift from a coworker.
So a good day overall.
