See Friday below for the post title reference. 😉
What I Spent
I spent:
- $30 on wings
- $49 at Aldi
- $13 at Safeway
- $11 at Chick-Fil-A
So, that’s $103 for the week.
What We Ate
Saturday
The three of us were all different places; I was babysitting my nieces and nephew, and we ate some Aldi pizzas together (the refrigerated type).
I only have a photo of an Aldi frozen pizza, so, here it is. The refrigerated ones are way bigger!
My littles niece spilled water all over part of a pizza after it had been baked, but luckily we had two pizzas, so it was ok.
Waterlogged pizza crust is exceedingly unappealing.
Sunday
Usually the girls and I do a takeout night on Saturdays together, but we bumped it to Sunday night this time.
They wanted wings, and I discovered that a restaurant super close to our rental house has wings. So that was easy!
Monday
For some reason, my stomach had been not feeling great, so I did not feel particularly inspired about cooking. Lisey was out, but Zoe was hungry for Chick-Fil-A, though, so I got her a meal.
And then I just ate a couple of fried eggs and some fruit.
Tuesday
Poor Zoe had a minor complication with her wisdom teeth recovery, so she was back on soft foods for a few days. Mac and cheese fit the bill.
Wednesday
More soft foods for Zoe; she requested French toast, which we ate with OJ and bacon.
Thursday
Last night of soft foods for Zoe; I made pasta alfredo, topped with grilled chicken.
Friday
Well…I’m flying to Texas this afternoon to visit one of my best friends for the weekend!
the last time I saw her, in 2018
So, I have no idea what I am eating for dinner tonight. 😉

It was a rainy Friday night and I had just worked the night before and was still tired so we had a freezer junk food and movie night. We had mozzarella sticks, totinos pizza rolls, pierogis, and jalapeño poppers. With apple slices.
Burgers on the grill with sautéed mushrooms, roasted cauliflower, green beans, and cole slaw
Hamburger helper with leftover chicken taco meat and some tomato, onion, and corn.

Welcome to Texas. Be prepared to endure very hot weather but this too will pass. It may be September before weather turns a little better. Just part of living in Texas. Don’t mind the heat can’t stand the cold weather LOL
