Most family members left for church this morning without eating breakfast. I think I am going to have to make a donation to the church snack fund! On Sunday mornings at church there are always bananas, apples, orange juice, granola bars, and donuts. They supply the best snacks I've ever heard of. Anyway, Trudy had early morning worship team practice, so a whole crew went with her and caught something to eat there. We only used 3 bowls of cold cereal this morning...
morning menu: cold cereal and milk for 3 people
cost: $.69
For lunch I used some of the chicken broth to make a chicken and rice soup with carrot slices. Then I hurried off to teach my class while my family ate it up. $2.42 made an unbelieveably large kettle of this soup. Every voted to have chicken and rice soup again. Simple but tasty. It was actually too thick to really be soup, but almost soup. Sorry, no time for pictures.
Lunch menu: Chicken and rice soup
Cost: $2.42
1.5 lb rice: .96
1/4 chicken: .99
4 organic carrots: .44

We had small group at church tonight with pizza on the menu. Our family personally supplied the brownies for dessert. So today is not a representative sample of a 10for10for10 day, but we have a life, and this is how we spent it today.
Brownies: $1.37 total
mix: .99
2 eggs: .18
oil: .20

I am donating the rest to the church snack fund. No Joke.
