So today as you may already know is the first day I am starting my "no money" challenge. It was already made difficult when my roommie informed me that she would be eating at Los Cabos, a local Mexican restaurant, this evening with her honor society. Of course at that moment a momentous hunger for Mexican food came over me. All i could think about is enchiladas smothered in cheese sauce.......*drool*. Ahem...Excuse me. Fortunately i resisted the temptation and dutifully i walked down my 4 flights of stairs and down a sloping hill to the Rialto.
Luck befell me then while as walking I encountered Rebecca, Jen, Kyle, and Topher. This helped me strengthen my resolve as they were also going to dinner at Rialto and invited me alone. I ate with them but I had to dash because Dashes was closing soon (no pun intended). I got my food and hurried back to my room.
My grocery list for April 6:
1 Banana
2 Cinnamon Raisin bagels
1 Bowl of apple jacks cereal
and 3 mini packets of cream cheese
It all sounds good now but we will see in the a.m. how i feel without my daily Poptarts. Already I have saved $3.50 on a box of those delicious pastries. Now I'm off to study for my Abnormal Psy. class and let's hope this keeps my mind off fired ice cream.....doubtful.
TTYL
P.S. Check out the link at the bottom of my page, there is a site where a family did something much like my own but with a budget instead. Woo....I don't feel so alone in my challenge.
