cook more at home

Cooking at home is definitely a big money saver. I’ve been following recipes from my many cookbooks, but I’m now at the point where I can improvise my own recipes. They usually turn out pretty well!

I’m doing really well with this goal -except on the weekends.
When my boyfriend comes over we end up going out to eat all the time.
We’re going to set a weekly dollar limit for eating out. Hopefully that will help us to remember to eat at home.
Besides, we have fun in the kitchen together!

I’ve been trying to save $$$ lately, so I have been eating at home more often. I have also been inviting friends over instead of going out to restaurants to eat. Its way cheaper than dining out. Plus we’re in a relaxed atmosphere where we can listen to whatever music we want and take our time talking and eating.
Plus when I cook I have leftovers to have for lunch the next day!
