Day 5 & Day 6
Forgive my disappearance. Yesterday wasn’t terribly interesting: cereal and milk for breakfast/lunch and spaghetti and tomato sauce with steamed broccoli on the side for dinner. Today was even less so; the last of the cereal with milk and banana for breakfast—I woke up unusually early—scrambled eggs and two slices of bread for lunch, and a bowl of ramen noodles, I am sorry to say, for dinner. I had to get out of the house to meet a friend in a hurry, so it seemed like a good moment to use my easy meal.
As this week winds toward its end, I’m finding myself a little bit freer with my food than I was to begin with. My worry was that the $25 I spent on the first of the month wouldn’t stretch the long first ‘week’; I’m no longer worried about that, and I’ve begun to anticipate that if I’m careful, I can reasonably splurge on eating out once or twice at the end of the month.
Unless I have some particularly brilliant stroke of culinary genius, experiment with some new or unusual ingredient, or manage to cook something for an absurd price, I may not blog every single meal from here on out. If it’s getting boring for me, it must be incredibly boring for anyone reading.
