Meal Planning can save Lots of Money and other thoughts!

Well the house is clean... and the kids are in bed, and I have a minute to write something nifty... Our ladies bible study leader asked if anyone wanted to lead the next study... I think the Lord is leading me there, I have been a Christian for many years and have never lead. The Lord was telling me James.. but I was saying how about something else... like 1 Timothy or 1 Corinthians.. it funny how you hear what the Lord wants but you want to do something different, why would I want to do that when if He is leading then it will be just right...! 

 

All day long things happen that I think I should write about and then when it comes time to write I cant think of the things... I guess they call it writers block or something like that or my life is just so Blah... I want to write really interesting and helpful things.. like...

 

you can save lots of money if you shop with a list... and plan meals ahead.. I knew this and have done this in my life but havent for a while and just started up again... we have spent on shopping before 1000.00 on food for, oh, a couple of weeks... last week I spent 140.00 for 2 weeks... I didnt have to buy much meat, or pool supplies but I dont think pool supplies count as food... hummm!  I am thinking that is a huge savings.. we would shop without a plan and  just buy whatever, a bunch of this and a bunch of tha, some stuff lasts for a month and some lasts 2 days..like,  Corn dogs last 2 days.. one of those huge boxes from Sams... Gone!  the other benifit of all this is that the kids are not cooking for themselves.. which is good to know for the kids but the mess is almost not worth it... well it is late again.  nighty nite
