Alright ladies. So honestly, because I was never raised this way, I do not get how to plan my meals a week ahead of time and go purchase those things. My mom just made what we had, or we took a quick trip to the store to grab missing items.
I need to save money, I love to cook, and I am SO. EFFING. TIRED. of eating out. Someone please help me ;_;
BF and I's main issue is that we sit around for about 20 minutes every day and go 'What do you want to eat? What sounds good?' and I might shoot him in the face if I get asked it one more time, bless his heart. So I could grab a cookbook to begin combing through recipes, but it would still be the same routine 'Does this sound good? No? Alright, how about this?'. So how do I build a base of recipes that I can use for a couple of weeks before I start branching out?
How do I make sure I get the right amounts of the right ingrediants each trip without it taking up hours of one of my few precious weekend days? I work until about 7 every night so I don't have much time EXCEPT on Sat or Sun to go shopping for the week.
Basically, I am dumb. Teach me.
