It's Monday morning and it is hectic as all get out! I have my Praxis in about an hour. It's my fifth one...and FINAL one...so I hope I pass. I have groceries to get, of course. And 4 more papers to write this week. Ouch. I will update as soon as I can...I don't think I updated last week's MPM yet, so I'll try and do that one too. This week I added an "additional items" section because I typically will get milk, creamer, lunch food for me, cereal, snack foods, etc. and I don't see those as unnecessary purchases just because they aren't planned recipes.

I did get a few things more because they FINALLY have cucumber ranch!! It's my favorite for snacking with baby carrots :) I also got a little B&J's ice cream, baby carrots, and 2 bags of granola. Without my extra snack foods, my total would have been $132.79 - so overall not bad at all. I stayed within the limits of my weekly grocery budget :)
