For the month of February...

I am going to post everyday. The readers of my blog (yes all 3 of you) are going to hold me responsible to my goal this month, which is to eat at home almost every meal. We have $100 to spend on eating out for the month of February. To some, that may seem like a lot. But, eating out adds up, and you don't even realize it! This includes Mark's lunch too. He's paper-baggin' it now. This is going to be hard for us because we like meeting for lunch once or twice a week, and we like going out to eat on the weekends. Well $100 is not going to allow much eating out for a family of 5, and I don't do fast food. So anyways, I think it will help me stick to my goal if I have to post whether or not I went out that day, and how much I spent. I don't want you guys to see me fail. =) Luckily, the 1st day of the month should be easy. It's Sunday so we never go out that day anyways, and we're going to my parents for dinner. =)

I think that's a great idea too! We eat out a lot too, and it'd be such an easy way to cut back on some monthly spending.

No Fast food! I'm curious to see how you do it. Does that include IN and Out cuz I love that place and if it were in Utah I'd eat there at least once a month.
