Last night of this challenge but it has gotten me back into meal planning and being budget-conscious again. I enjoyed the quiet dinners (aka-engaging in conversations uninterrupted by electronics) and hope to continue family night table dinners/conversations.

Shrimp-fried rice with some broccoli and onions help me use the left-overs to recreate another meal. WIN!

I ride the bus each day to work, it gives me time to read.

Cabbage stir fry with broccoli, tofu and seasoned with garlic and ginger then garnished with cilantro, yum yum!

Watched Fed Up tonight...just reinforces my opinion of finding the truth by following the money. Not sure how 'healthy' processed food is??? Hmmm, I think I'll learn healthy without your help or products 

Breakfast for dinner of pancakes, eggs and sausage. Today was more of a kick back and relax before starting up for the week. Bring on Monday!

Hamburgers with bacon and baked beans - oh, and don't forget the pickles. And best part - my daughter made dinner tonight. Yay, mom get's a night off.

Tonight's dinner is a family favorite - chicken curry in a hurry. Chicken curry over rice with grilled asparagus on the side. Yummy!

Now that I live further out if I don't bike in I use the train.  It takes a bit longer than if I drove in, but I didn't buy my car to use it to get to work.  I bought it to get out of town more often so that my girlfriend doesn't have to drive all the time.

Waste not, want not...Tonight was a simple, use up the rest of the sandwich meat and cheese in a grilled panini, steamed veggies and side salad. Dinner topic was the news about the gas line on 23rd and prayers for those affected by it.
