Yay!  Yay!  Budget Day!

This week needed to be lean because a certain special husband celebrated a birthday, and we wanted to go out for a nice meal.  Also, the travels and festivities surrounding Christmas required that we pinch a little this month.  I headed to the store with a pretty typical grocery list, and I somehow managed to come home with a pretty unusual receipt.  Are you ready?  I spent a grand total of $54.  BAM!  We spent $9 for dinner at church, and our dinner out on Cory’s birthday came to $34 on a “Kids Eat Free” night.  That brings us to $97 for the week.  I’m so excited!  Here’s our menu:

Monday–Dinner Out

Tuesday–Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo over Pasta

Wednesday–Dinner at Church

Thursday–Kielbasa, Macaroni & Cheese, Mixed Veggies

Friday–BBQ Chicken Sandwiches and Baked Beans

Saturday–Egg Salad Sandwiches and Creamy Potato Soup

Sunday–Chicken Tetrazzini in the Crock Pot

Take a look at my blog friends.  Some of them post links to recipes!  Yum.
