It's Broken!!!

And it's probably not what you thought I was gonna say. Me! I'm so broke right

now I don't have two pennies to rub together. Let alone buy me some groceries!

Now, I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me or my kids cause we DO have

food in the house. It's just that it's the stuff that no one really wants to eat.

You know the kind? You fan the pantry or fridge door a couple of times and

can't find ANYTHING to eat! Even though it is staring right back at you!!!

So, no more money until NEXT Wednesday means making meals and snacks

out of what's left!!

Here is a run down of what I am dealing with:
