We had a he child sighting today, but he stayed at grandma's anyway. She child is at a sleepover. So it's just Chris and I for dinner. Doing it super cheap and super easy tonight. I took a bag of that frozen, fully cooked chicken breast out of the freezer, it is cooking down on the stove with seasoning and I will add bbq sauce once it gets more shreddy. I got a bag of buns at Dollar Tree tonight, and I have some mashed potatoes that we got from snack guy which I will make. So dinner will cost around $4.00 for both of us, or $2.00 each. Probably even less than that. That's what is going on tonight, what about at your house?

I made Asian stir fry last night. Fried rice and spicy orange chicken. Wasn't really what I wanted, but it's what the girls wanted, so I cooked it up for them. I was in the mood for BBQ, but the chicken and rice was still pretty good.

Last night we had Whataburger! I've been on a Whataburger kick. We had Subway today for a late lunch, and it was actually surprisingly good. I am making hamburger helper tonight.

@thislittlepennyearns For as much as I hate Subway, most of the time I go there the food is better than I expect it to be.

@moffittjc We prefer Firehouse, but we don't have one in town. When I lived in Oregon I ate Subway often, they had an amazing salmon sandwich. But currently the Great Garlic is my fav. Garlic aoili, shredded chicken, cheese, salt and pepper and spinach is what i get on it. I think its supposed ot have tomatoes and onions. But ew.
