A budget to live by

So. My hours at work have gotten cut. Temporarily mind you , provided I either find a new job or decide for sure to transfer.So until I realize i'm not getting a new job , I have to find ways to cut back on spending so Gregg and I can actually live and pay the rest of my bills. One down 2 to go. SO... with that said I've decided to try and cut back on Groceries. Right now we spend roughly 150 on groceries for 2 weeks. I'm going to try to cut it back to 50 for 2 weeks while still making sure we're getting healthy meals that won't starve us.

Thanks to my awesome Google skills I've found a few websites which I've found to have several healthy meals for under $5 a meal. Well , i'm picky. I looked at all the ones I could find that were $2 or under per serving. I FOUND LOTS !! So I hope you guys don't mind but i'm going to make my blog a combination of my food test and a photography blog challenge thing. Another one of those 30 days thing. I guess i'll do the same with the food. I want to be able to make dinners for under $5 a meal for 30 days without repeating. Think I can do it ? I've already gotten 14 meals planned.

Be ready for LOTS of pictures. I know every blog is about that! Oh and wish me luck!
