March 2nd and 3rd.... $0 spent

Sundays are my "shopping" days.  I get my delivered Sunday paper, I sit with my cup of coffee and breakfast and sort the paper making sure I look at the ads first.  Then I plot what I want to buy from Target, Michaels, AC Moore and others.  Not being able to spend money on items at these stores took away some enjoyment from my Sunday morning ritual and I was forced to actually read the contents of the paper and drool over the items I want (don't need) from the ads. I decided to put a hold on my paper until March 30th so I don't run into the weekly temptations to spend money.

I stayed in on day 2, so no money spent.  Breakfast (or rather brunch since I didn't eat until noon) was homemade coffee cake w/ coffee and a mimosa using week old champagne and OJ.

Dinner: brown rice, corn (from the freezer) and I found a box of the veggie buffalo chicken nuggets buried in the freezer that I cooked. 

Not pictured were items consumed during the Oscars: homemade popped corn, melted chocolate and strawberries (friend brought those over) and wine.

Monday- First day of the month at work and I usually bring my lunch, so nothing was different.

Breakfast: leftover coffee cake, tea & scone from work [no picture]

Lunch: leftover Thai coconut noodles w/ tofu and broccoli, mandarin orange, Greek yogurt and frozen mixed berries both items I had on hand. [no picture- looked much like Saturday's lunch]

(Chocolates sitting around the office were consumed in the afternoon along with a never ending cup of tea thanks to a sore throat)

Dinner: after coming home feeling crappy with a sore throat, dinner was ramen noodles and some homemade sourdough bread (from the freezer and toasted) with butter and more tea.
