Pantry Challenge Goals

Jessica at  Good Cheap Eats (and Life as Mom) is hosting a pantry challenge for the month of January.  She also does once a month freezer cooking, which I am going to give a whirl next month.  She posted her goals of her Pantry Challenge here, and since we are going to try to eat from the pantry this month as well, I wanted to post my goals.

1.  Lower our grocery budget.  C and I are working on being more financially aware this year and are tracking our spending.  I have gotten into a terrible habit of spending money too much on groceries and letting things go to waste because they are not used in a timely manner.  My goal is to spend $75 a week on FOOD as opposed to $150.

2.  Clear out the pantry and cabinets for a new organization project.  Because, trust me folks, it NEEDS to happen.

3.  Lead a healthier lifestyle.  This includes not spending money on fast food and buying lunches out (or at school).
