Goal achieved!

April 22nd, 2013 at 09:35 pm

I have 14 NSDs for the month. Last week was a good week for NSD and I'm working on more this week. I'm really trying to conserve my money, in case a settlement is reached in the dealings with the mortgage crud.

Had my spendy Wednesday. Then didn't spend on Thursday or Friday. Saturday was planned spending of a hair cut and color ($65), small amount of grocery shopping (bread, milk, bananas, frozen greek yogurt, and a 20 oz of soda), and a milkshake from McDonalds.

I was disappointed by my shake at McDs. I just wanted a vanilla shake--the way they used to be. Instead I got a fancy, whipped cream with cherry thing. It was nice, but it wasn't what I thought I was getting when I ordered. McDs is getting all fancy. And it cost me $3 to find that out. Urg.

Sunday I cleaned the house, went for a run, made food for the week, took a nap, finished a book, then went and watched SO play hockey. Another NSD.

Today I think will be yet another NSD. I will be spending some money tomorrow to send out a half.com book and basic groceries to get us through the rest of the week. SO likes soft, fresh bread, so there is a lot of bread buying around our house. Then the next spend day should be Saturday. I need to make a trip to the Apple store to return the cord I bought for my laptop--it isn't the right cord. Sigh.

    What do you do with the bread SO doesn't manage to eat? I hope it's ok to make suggestions like French toast [bread soaked in beaten egg], Grilled, 3 cheese sandwich, Monte Christo, Croque Monsuier, Chicken Divan, fish patties, pineapple pudding, potato pie, croutons, bread pudding/carmel sauce, meatloaf...come to mind

    I really miss the chocolate malts I used to get at dime-store soda fountains, like Kresge's. They just don't make 'em that way any more! My girlfriends and I used to make regular stops for homemade malts and real French fries -- freshly made from real potatoes. Took it for granted!

    snafu, I don't mind your suggestions at all! Luckily, I don't need my bread as soft and fresh as he does, so my sandwiches for work lunches use up the bread. I actually like my bread a little stale, so we make a good couple!
