Groceries 2009

So, it's the first grocery trip of the year.  It was a poor decision on my part.  I decided at the last minute to go before the boys would get back from school.  We left at about 2:20 PM.  Sadly, this is Reagan's prime naptime.   We saw one of the women I share milk pick up with, and she unfortunately witnessed Reagan's repeated attempts to dive from the cart.  Yes, the two-year old in her was definitely evident on this trip.  Molly did well, though she did have a snowflake tattoo on her forehead, purple floral Vans, bare legs, her fairy spinny  skirt, and a red sparkly Cat in the Hat long sleeved t-shirt (on backwards).  She actually wore her snowpants and coat into the store, but took them off after we got inside.  

Soooo.  I initially only planned to buy groceries for about 2 weeks worth of meals, but I wound up buying more meat than I needed because some of it was at really good prices.  

Amount Spent: 52.93.

1 bunch bananas
3 lbs Naturewell ground beef 
2 doz. eggs
4 + lb. chuck roast
6 lb. pork roast (picnic)
10 lb+ boneless skinless chicken breast
1 bunch celery
1 3lb bag carrots
1 cup yogurt (starter for homemade)
2 bags frozen broccoli
1 20 lb. bag of grapefruit

I have to refigure my meal plans, but I think this should get us through a month with minimal additions. This time, I'll let you know what we're eating around here! ;)
