Week 41, Day 7

Breakfast: we had the steel cut oats and none of the kids liked it.  I didn't like it particularly but I will eat what is left for breakfast tomorrow.  I made them eat a few bites so that they would have something in their bellies.  Dai said she thinks it is the dates - so we will try it again but the kids aren't too thrilled about it.  Also, it was too dry and even burned around the edges.  I think it needed more water.

Lunch: Cress had a PBH on homemade bread - the last heel that I found tucked in with the church bread.  Thank goodness for rubber spatulas - we are now totally out of peanut butter.  Dai and Phyllis had ham sandwiches on church bread.  All three girls had CSA green beans.  Cress and Dai had CSA bell pepper - half each.  Cress also had pickles.  Phyllis had a CSA apple and a carrot - half coined, half sticks.  Dai had a CSA apple.  Each girl got two cookies - they are pretty small.  I ate at McDonald's when Toni Langley, a co-worker, went since I had not packed myself anything.

I really need to go to Costco, but I work four days this week and have no Jason to stray home if I go out in the evening - so we are doing our best to make it through.  But I think I will have to go before Jason returns.  I am out of peanut butter, very low on eggs and lunch meat, out of cream cheese (which is truly optional) and we were out of milk until I bought some last night.

After school snack: bars from the bag of stuff Steve gave us

Dinner: Toast from church bread and potato soup.  It is the kind I used to make a lot, my mom's soup.  Cress was disappointed that it wasn't potato leek, but there you go.  I used cream rather than milk (as my mom did) because I had some that is getting a bit old.
