Food is breaking my wallet and my waist line

So the silly silly suggestion that I made to myself that I should only spend $50 a week on food has officially been blown out of the water. Can you say doubled and then some? Obviously I was being a tad unreasonable with my estimations. First I forgot a few things, like baby food and hello? lunches and then we had people stop for fun and darn it if we didn't want to show them a good time too. I think as far as this food budget goes, sometimes it will be cheaper and sometimes more expensive. I do not ever want to skimp on a good time or a heart felt gift.

That being said, I would like to revise my gift getting, in that I would like to spend what I need to in order to feel like I have done a good turn but as always, within reason.

And...we got some chairs for the house. Some chairs that will withstand the tests of times and children. Hopefully.

Also, there are the sundry household items that we need. Wood glue, who knew?

And as far as fast food goes, I had some with the husband today. But it was necessary in order to get done what we needed to get done, so I feel fine about it. I just don't think I want to ever eat it alone. That seems like a problem. Otherwise, eating at home has been both easy and difficult. Relatively easy to execute, but hard to emotionally wrap my head around. What a dork.

When did I start this? What do I get? satisfaction...
