Well, it looks like I'll have to cook dinner this week after all, since the world did not end.

Last week I realized I was out of ground beef so I made lamburger helper instead of my homemade hamburger helper. It was quite tasty. I also changed up the vegetables for our Friday dinner and made some steam sauteed carrots which were wonderful. I will be making them again and posting the recipe this week.

I included the things we bought this week at the bottom of the page. However, because of my Fred Meyer Rewards Rebates and a few coupons, the only thing we paid for out of pocket was the oranges.
