In an effort to save time, money and hopefully sanity I have decided to make freezer meals and set aside crockpot meals for the whole month, today. Wish me luck. I will also bake off deserts and mix cookie dough so that I wont have to bake either. The menu is still a work in progress and I will update as I go. I have done most of the shopping and my tally is 94.00 so far. Thanks in part to coupon clipping and ad comparing. Living in Pensacola there aren't a ton of different grocery stores but I found some good deals on the veggies I needed and pasta at Save A Lot and the rest at Grocery Outlet. I am about to begin this morning making

Cinnamon sugar quick bread(saw it on pintrest)

This is what it is supposed to look like.
