Farmers Market!

I love the farmers market in this area. It is always full of yummy fresh produce and I love that I can talk to the farmer that actually grows his or her food!

I went to the location that available on Wed.'s cause I needed some zucchini and a jalapeno.


I totally scored from a guy I normally shop at the downtown market. I got (3) zucchini and a jalapeno for $1.00 thus also being awesomely frugal in my purchase!

1st Day

First day of $100 Challenge

Breakfast- Skipped.  Hubby had a trailmix bar from home.

Lunch- Bossman bought coworkers and I some yummy Chipolte!  I had soft tacos and they were most excellent.  Barbacoa is the way to heaven....  Hubby had leftover orzo pasta and veggies.

Dinner- Hubby and I ate leftovers.  I had some orzo pasta with veggies, and he had leftover sketti and meatballs.  I also made up garlic bread with a leftover half a french bread and also some guac because who doesn't love guac!!!

Total Left: $100.

See day one and I'm already ahead!!!  This won't last long though :) 

1st post!

I've decided to start a $100 challenge!

During the month of Sept. I'm going to try and spend only $100 on food and drinks for the entire month!

My reward???

Going to Ashleys!  It's only the BEST place for beers!!  So many taps so little time!  Hubby and I never get up there anymore so I'd like to take a drive and sample the latest brews!!!  Woohoo!  So since I have the AWESOMEest prize for myself if I can do this I'm pretty sure it won't be too hard!
