A Jackson, a Hamilton, and one tired Lincoln go in to my little Guatemalan coin purse. This is how I'll keep tract of all my food purchases, keeping in mind this will have to last me 5 days. Already there's a little anxiety.
Strategy, check local store flyers for sales, stop at Grocery Outlet first. I'm not thinking about what I'll buy but searching for cheap good protein will be a priority.
Good for you Joey girl! And just to say....since I gave up admin work and have limited income - I find myself on $10 a day which includes buying propane for water and cooking. But I also find that the less I have for food the better and healthier I am eating. Going to the Farmer's market here on Kauai - I can fill my basket for $30 with lots of local organic food - it lasts me a week! I have been making all my own dressings, crackers, breads etc..since prices are so crazy for these...and nuts, avos plus doing lots of sprouting for protein - amazing what I have learned! Feel healthier than ever. Do hope you find the same there! big hug to you darlin'!
ReplyDeleteOh Selina thank you! I've been making my own bread because paying $5 for a loaf of good bread is ridiculous! Do you have any recipes for crackers? I've never made crackers before. How I miss those beautiful large orange fleshy papayas. Miss you too.
