Pantry Living Week 4

Another day, another bowl of cereal.

Pantry after week 4

We have made it through 4 weeks of no grocery shopping and minimal necessity purchases. Here's the weekly update:

• Cereal boxes after week 3: 35
• Cereal boxes after week 4: 31
• Opened: a new pack of bottled water, new bottles of Italian and Ranch dressing, a jar of spaghetti sauce, a bag of chocolate chips
• Bought: 4 loaves of bread
• Cash purchases: Vic's subs (I had just been released from the ER and was finally able to eat for the first time in days), fabric and random bag of sewing things at a yard sale
• Baked a double batch of zucchini bread, with the home grown zucchini, which was fabulous! Also baked banana chocolate chip bread with some too ripe bananas. 
• A few sweet angels have dropped milk off to us that was extra from a program they work. We are beyond blessed with this gift!
• My brother and his family were in town this week. I fed them all one evening and he donated a new bag of carrots for the salad.

Happy Summer!

*note: I was sick for several days and ended up in the ER due to dehydration. They gave me some awesome meds, along with 3 bags of fluids, and I'm now fit as a fiddle.
