Please don't judge (or if you do, please keep it to yourself), but I like my sauce and I drink nearly every day. Usually a few glasses of wine or a few glasses of beer and I enjoy it. I typically drink while eating or cooking dinner. Also I can be pretty good about eating only home cooked meals, but laziness pops in and pretty soon I'm running off to the corner restaurant for my instant fix-it-meal.
For the past two weeks, I've been diligent about setting a weekly meal plan and drinking a little less, buying all raw ingredients and then preparing said raw ingredients into something edible. The downside is I'm doing a lot of dishes and I hate doing dishes. So one way to solve that problem is to make a lot of one pot meals. So soups are coming into regular rotation. But I don't like soup without bread. So I'm making bread again. I have a bread machine so that saves me a bit of time (and dirty bowls)
I've also tweaked and re-tweaked my budget. I know it takes me about 60-90 days to get into the groove of things so my budget isn't too harsh (yet), after 60-90 days of eating home cooked meals and watching my money like a hawk, I hope to adjust my budget again to see whether I'm on goal or not.
Cooking more at home and drinking less
