Publix, on a Sunday, with the whole family, and a so/so list/coupons is not a great idea for saving the most $$. This is especially true if you do this right around lunch time and everyone is hungry. ;-) I saved 65% this week, so not terrible, but I already spent $52 and I am not done for the week yet...with Easter at our house, I still need some things....not to mention forgetting yogurt and milk! I guess the good news is that this month's budget is done on Wednesday.
I guess I can give myself a little slack too because it is also Allie's birthday on Friday and of course they get to have whatever dinner they choose on their birthday, and of course my children always choose either shrimp, steak, or spaghetti and meatballs. ;-). What can I say? They have good taste. So, she chose spaghetti and meatballs. Tony's meatballs are famous in these parts...they have 2 kinds of ground meat, lots of fresh herbs and spices, garlic, onion, and about a lb and a half of italian salami, proscuitto, pancetta, and some other kind of meat. They are FANTASTIC...but so not a bargain. ;-)
We LOVE October!

Oh my gosh, can I invite myself to her birthday dinner? I know I've said this to you a thousand times, but the best spaghetti I ever had was the spaghetti Tony made for everyone one night at Chili's. Soooooooo good!!! You need to ship a jar of his sauce up to SC! :)
