Day 5 of Feeding Your Family for $450 a month
Well it’s time for something different for a meal. Tonight it was easy. I will be making Beef Cal-zone. You will need 1 lb of beef, 1 prepared pizza dough, 1 bag of pizza cheese, 1/4 cup of Swiss Cheese, 1/4 Cup of Cheddar Cheese, 1 Cup of Ricotta cheese and 1 t of Italian Seasoning. The cost for the meal is: Beef 1.97, Dough .69, Pizza Cheese 1.99, Swiss Cheese .25, Cheddar Cheese .25, Ricotta Cheese .82 and Seasoning .89(cost of the jar) = 6.86 which gives us a balance of $403.65.
Today was Boy Scouts to the Library. I learned that I had forgotten to return 3 DVD’s and now have a past due amount of $64.00 in fines. Never again. Actually, the boys had lost the video’s and with all the other exciting things going on, I had forgotten. so, hopefully at the end of the month, I will have the extra to pay the library and then can check out books again. The other exciting thing is that my 8 year old has discovered Star Wars. While I grew up on what later became episodes 4, 5, & 6 now I am having to learn all about 1,2 & 3. Way to go Mom, I think… Have a great weekend.
