Week of 4/10/23- The Extra Assist

 This week I ended up pulling a few more things from my stockpile that I didn’t include in my grocery haul post. These included: 

Item 

Price 

Pack of PB M&Ms 

$1.24 

6pk Diet Pepsi 

$1.89 (with 50% off coupon from Meijer) 

Iconic Protein Shake 4pk 

$5.00 

1 Pack of PB Wafer Bar from a 6pk box 

$.31 

Soy Sauce 

$1.58 

Total 

$10.02 

 

After doing more calculations this past week, it turns out that I was a week short this year so, I’m adding another $35 to the total budget for the remainder of the year.  

Remainder of Yearly Budget-   $1,178.93 

Addition of extra week-             $35 

Less Extra Spending-                               $10.02 

New Remaining Budget-                    $1,203.91

Week of 4/17/2023- The Game Plan

The Game Plan for this week is to get some food preservation done. This will include:    Freeze the leftover berries from last week   Cut the pineapple into chunks to freeze   Use pineapple skins to make tepache   Prep some dates into syrup   Make the pickled daikon and tomatoes   Go through remaining celery, asparagus, kale, and corn and prep for freezer   Prep some garbanzo beans   Plan out work meals   Let’s look at some of these-   Prepping and freezing fresh fruits and vegetables-   Different fruits and vegetables have different methods for preparing for freezer storage.
