Friends, I finally asked for groceries. Only this time they will have to last the whole month.
I bought beautiful seedless grapes and I´m sure that they will not last much. But if they don´t, I´ll have to go on without them. These groceries will have to last until the last days of February.
I even bought Luna´s food so that I cn´t say that I´m generously asking for groceries on Luna´s behalf.
There are a few luxuries, but not too many. II bought olives (canned green ones stuffed with jalapeños)as they are an inexpensive way of having something as an appetizer. I also bought a small amount of the cheese I like best.
I will not buy chocolate cake until winter is here.
Now I am going to rest a bit before I finish putting away everything.
I thhink I´ll take a nap. It is so hot that I´m half awake in spite of the iced coffee. See you

I´m trying to stretch my money. I can eat one luxury item but not a lot of them,.

They are now expensive here too but I buy them instead of any sort of dessert in season.

We used to do our groceries for an entire month. I got tired of not having enough food so now I am do the shopping twice a month. It works much better.
Enjoy your nap.

Last year I went from once every 2 weeks to once in a week because I was depressed and needed chocolate cake. This year I´m doing better and my goal is to save some money so this month I waited for 3 weeks.

@marguicha .......I see. For just one person that might be easier to do.

We have been shopping once a week but only getting things that we are out of. I shop online; and hubs goes and picks up the order. So easy. Have a good day.
