about me

I do something a little different than most people. Instead of OAMC, I do OAMS (once a month shopping). I have a large family and a small grocery budget. Feeling convicted about overspending on groceries (by going to the store everyday or every other day "to pick up something for dinner") pushed me to sit down and concentrate on making a detailed 4 week menu and shopping list. This has saved me a TON of money; I have fed a family of 7 on less than $400 consistently for the last 6 months. Thank you, FlyLady for the menu-planning inspiration!!

Favorite Foods:

Favorite Foods? My personal favorite is chocolate. Chocolate, in any form or fashion! I am, what you say--a chocoholic! My family really loves the variety in our menu now that I am planning instead of trying to think of something on a whim. Bacon Chicken Alfreddar (one of my creations) is the most recent favorite.
