Food Plan, 112909

Thanksgiving was awesome and having the extra days from work was really nice. But now, we're back to the grind, pushing ahead to the next days off: Christmas. And I thought Thanksgiving came on fast...this month is going to haul ass!

We have in the queue and in no particular order:

• spare ribs, with corn on the cob, cole slaw and mashed potatoes
• Vietnamese Chicken, the old way per Rodney's request
• Baked Dijon Salmon
• taco salad
• Italian Marinated Chicken Breasts with Homestyle Rice Pilaf
• Garlic Chicken-Fried Chicken with something TBD

112909, BevMo:

• TOTAL: 7.76

Grand Total: $111.28. A lot of that cost was boneless skinless chicken pieces I don't normally buy. Boneless skinless chicken thighs at $2.99 a pound?! Get out of here! And yet I bought 3 lbs anyway. ETC.

The ribs though, were my big extravagance this time around! Though coming in at only $0.97/lb, they were a hot new attraction!

Hopefully, I won't be going to the store until December 6th.

Scratch that.
