So this week’s damage: $112.57 for groceries. Looking back over the receipts, we have apparently been consuming massive quantities of fresh-ground organic peanut butter, bananas, pears, and orange juice. Clearly the fetus has been making up the shopping lists lately. We also bought broccoli twice because I was craving it and we aren’t growing any in the garden.

Broccoli, man. Total garden space hog for very little payoff. We grew it our first season and never again.

(Wait…what’s that you say? You saw me and my family at an ice cream shop on Saturday evening? And yet you see no accounting for that here in the budget post? Well, fine. Ice cream was eaten, and enjoyed by all. But I don’t have the receipt, because what kind of kill-joy saves the ice cream receipt? We took my mom out for ice cream. Let’s call it an entertainment expense. No way it was enough to push us over budget, anyway.)
