 * Comments: I might start making Grocery Outlet trips twice a month as the first stop in Monday gym visits and extend the early pick-up window from 10:45 to 11 am. Between that and tacking on items to Frank's Walmart orders and just paypal-ing him my share, I think I'm going to get my grocery + transportation fees easily down under $200/mo despite food prices.  And I will have even more justification to cancel Instacart this summer.

The ricotta cheese was lower in calories than cottage cheese and the price ridiculously wonderful. It does need to be eaten within the next week, however, so expect that to be one of my go-to snacks.

The bag of stir-fry and phad thai will make for 5 meals to compliment the batch of tortilla soup I made yesterday and provide the main part of my lunch/dinners this week. I already had an almost full bag of cabbage to add in, so its completely perfect.
