Budget Meal for Next Week: - Knorr Teriyaki Rice mix ($.99) add 2 cups cooked barley (from pantry,) mix thoroughly. Blanch sliced carrots until just al dente. Slice and fry until crisped/browned Hillshire smoked turkey sausage (4 oz from freezer). When sausage is done add to rice mixture, add al dente carrots and toss/mix. Do not over toss. Should make 4 to 6 servings perfect for lunches.

I was going to shop this w/e at Safeway, I have a $25 gift card and buy produce and eggs, but I think I am going to see if I can bypass that. Thursday is pay-day. I love eggs, so I will see if Walgreens has a $1.50 special on eggs, if they do I will get a dozen there, even tho I hate white eggs but my desire for a bargain outstrips my desire for brown eggs, besides when hard boiled, they peel better. Any cheap deals Walgreens has on snacks I will consider buying; I need to peruse their flyer if I want to go there tomorrow morning.

Saturday morning I was going to go buy a fuschia for my balcony but that will cost $17.99 plus tax. I think I may wait on that and see if I can score something on sale for less in the next week or two. My window boxes are quite fine for right now.

I had this envelop of various cards that I went through last night (because I was trying to remember where that Safeway card was!) and I also came across enough "stamps" for two free Teriyaki meals and two AMC Movie theatre cards, one cards has $9.75 on it and the other card has $1.25 on it ... so I think I'd have enough for a before noon movie and a kid pack, yeah I would, before noon is $6.00 and a kid pack is $6.00 also but I like the Icee so that ups the price a dollar or two, but worth it. Maybe I'll go to a movie on Sunday. This sounds dorky, but I would like to see the Hannah Montana Movie. I think she's really cool and I do wish I could go back and re-do my adolesence, I would do things so differently!

Well, it has been on hell of a week, I am so happy it is the weekend, I am mentally fried. I can barely keep my eyes open so I will wrap things up for the evening.
