This was not a bad shopping week at all. I only made two stops and stayed under plan despite buying six very nice steaks for our first BBQ of the season. It will be interesting to see the numbers for the month next week.
I spent $66.21 at Wegman’s on Monday. This was largely a restocking visit.
On Friday I spent $144.37, including steaks for the Saturday BBQ. This was more for specific meals. There are steaks, potatoes, and salad for the BBQ; hot dogs and buns for the inevitable quick dinner; pizza dough; and broccoli to go with dumplings Friday night. I used a rain check for the shredded cheese, which is basically only in stock when it is not on sale. The English muffins were buy 1, get 2 free which is the one time I will buy them.
We only managed to eat together twice this week. On Monday everyone ate the same thing, but not at the same time.
Monday:
Shepard’s pie, green beans
Tuesday:
Early: Chicken nuggets, spinach salad
Late: Homemade pizza
Wednesday:
Early: Pancakes
Late: Indian take-out
Thursday:
Early: Chicken nuggets, carrot sticks
Late: Take-out pizza (This was a last minute rain-induced change so no dough was thawed.)
Friday:
Early: Dumplings, rice, broccoli
Late: Homemade pizza
Saturday:
Steaks, baked beans, baked potatoes, tossed salad
Sunday:
Chicken & garlic with fresh herbs, french bread, spinach/tossed salad

What are your families favorite toppings for pizza? Do you guys go all out with pizza toppings or keep it pretty simple with cheese and pepperoni?
Still in awe at how you manage to have two dinners a night. My family when I was in junior basically turned to fend for yourself dinners because no one was home at the same time. 😦

Two dinners a night is not my favorite thing, but frankly the kids are still mostly too young to fend for themselves.
As for pizza toppings, I like pepperoni for homemade. I’ll get more interesting toppings out. The youngest five are all still on cheese only. The other two choose between green pepper, mushrooms, and tomatoes as I usually have all three of those available. We make individual pizzas so its not problem for everyone to be different.

I definitely wish I had more time to make homemade pizza at night during the week sometimes. I guess I need to be better about pre-planning for dinner.
