Grocery Spending/Menu Plan | insert creative title here

April 10, 2010

It’s a multiple-picture week. This is my produce, none of which is local, because farmer’s markets aren’t open here yet (and I did try signing up for a CSA, but the programs here are full already.  Boo.  I did get on a waiting list, though). I already have zucchini, peppers, onions, and carrots in the [...]
