We are working on a self-imposed dining challenge this week: no grocery shopping. We're going to try to go from Saturday night to Friday night eating only what we have on hand in the fridge, freezer and pantry. This will knock out an item from The List, it will save a few bucks, and it will help clean out some stuff from the kitchen in a major way. I'm going to buy a gallon of milk on Sunday or Monday, but that's it. So far there are predictions that we'll be down to cereal or pancakes by the end of this, but I really think we have enough stuff around that I can come up with semi-real meals for the whole week. We'll see how it goes.
Saturday night: all leftovers, including grilled pork chops, two kinds of pasta, and chili.
Sunday morning: bacon, eggs, and toast. It's been easy so far, but I also realized that we have fewer eggs than I thought we did. That could become an issue later in the week. Okay, off to find something frozen to thaw for dinner.
