$75!

For some reason, my body felt ready to get up today at 9:00am. This never happens. Ever. So I took my extra free time and went grocery shopping before the Saturday afternoon rush (after working on today's crossword puzzle, of course). And I spent a whopping SEVENTY FIVE DOLLARS, more than I've ever spent as a po' grad student in one outing to the store. I pretty much depleted my entire budget for the month. But OMIGOSH am I excited about my finds! I thank the food gods for PriceRite, because all this would have cost me probably $150 anywhere else. I am SO excited to eat all this food!


Some of my awesome finds: 
+a big bag of couscous
+Kashi cookies and cereal
+pepper jack cheese
+Greek yogurt
+almonds and cranberries trail mix
+italian cherry ice 
+cottage cheese
+all my necessary veggies (kale, carrots, parsley, cabbage, green peppers)
+garlic hummus (a whole pound!) 
+a 9x9 pan (for $3!)
+ and YES, measuring spoons (yayyyyyyy!)


And lots and lots of other yummy goodies. I'm trying to eat less processed food so I said "no" to a lot of the snacks I usually buy. Now however I'm just stuck with that awesome feeling in my stomach of IwannaeatallofthisrightNOW. And an empty wallet in my purse. Give a little, take a little, right?
