Day Two on $25 a week

My menu yesterday was about the same as it was on Day 1 ... and just about as expensive, I think.

Breakfast - 2 cups of coffee (I didn`t make a full pot so I could halve the grounds. I don`t drink a whole pot anyway. Coffee was weak) - .25
1 banana - .25
20 grapes - .60
1 small glass of juice - .30

mid-morning - one more pot of coffee -- a friend came over - .40

lunch - borscht - the rest from last night .50
humus and pita (should have made my own instead of buying those small tubs in the store) - 3.00
glass of milk .40

Supper - pork loin (bought on sale) .75
with veggies (frozen) - .40
glass of milk - .40
(a bit of balsamic vinegar, antipasto, olives and parmesan cheese for variety - about .50

Grand total: 7.75

A pattern is emerging -- convenience foods are not my friend ...
