Christmas is passed and the new year is upon us. So is the time for new year resolutions. Or in my case a challenge. I have been asked by my Moms Club of Twin/Jorme to speak in February on food bugeting. Something i have tryed to keep at $280 a month for some time now, and also eat very well. I mean well not just tasty to the pallet, but also healthy. So I am changling my self to walk the walk, and see if in Twin it is posable to feed a family of 4 (as defined as one adult male, one prgo. adult female, and two kids 5 & 3. )
I am starting this blog to keep recored of how and what I do throw the month to reach this gaol. Pulse I plan on field reshurch for the prices of the food we eat, and some for the food I know that are more comely eaten by my club mates. Ya' I plan to see what you are paying for a lb. of meet and a gal. of milk.
I am a bit intimidated by the process but I won't to bring the best info. to the club, and hopefully improve my current budget.
The rules of the game I intend to use are
1) $200 in cash, to spend on food and hose hold needs
2) I plan to buy all food from stores and or co-ops/farmers in Twin
3) I will use a meal plan for 30 days
4) My meal plan will use pantree supplies on hand
5) I will post up dates every 2-3 days.
So here we go...

What a nice surprise to see you started a blog. I am really looking forward to following your meal challenge. We were just talking about how we should take out cash for groceries and once it is gone it is gone. I think we will start this month. If you have time post what a typical week meal plan looks like for your family.
ReplyDeleteHey, I have been in Mom's club for a while but have't attended many meetings or activities. This should be interesting, I'm excited to see how it turns out.
