So, yes, we spent more than I intended. No, we didnt buy much in the way of meat, just chicken. But we have hamburger here already. Yes we bought mostly name brand pop, but it was on sale so it was worth it. And it will go to work with us this week so there wont be so much vending machine purchases.


Tonight we have hamburger helper, some broccoli, and whatever else i can scrounge up on commercials. Cause lets face it... tonight its all about LOST!!!!
