Shopping List & Menu For Week Of Sept 14

My last entry I described what I typically have in my pantry or fridge on a regular basis.  It gave a pretty good picture of the type of grocery shopper & cook I am.   Today's post is what I actually bought this week & how I cooked the foods.  Hopefully this exercise will enable me to be more aware of what I buy & cook.  I am hoping this leads me to be a more healthy & less wasteful shopper. Let's see how long this lasts!
