• Personally speaking….

    While taking three classes this semester to finish my master's degree, my time to post is smaller than usual. I hope to post at least once a week though about things that matter to me -- a single young woman in Hampton Roads, VA.

Two days of eats

Oatmeal:
How I love thee but won’t it get old quickly? I still have about 2 or 3 cups left in the fridge for nuking. So far my favorite way to make it (other than oodles of brown sugar and milk and butter) is banana. Gotta find some other ways!

Saving by menu planning

Image: Daniel Y. Go
I tried The Grocery Game for a $1 trial. Pretty neat idea. If I actually visited the site and did what she said to do, I can definitely see how I’d save in the long run. But I tend to shop at one store, with maybe a quick stop at a couple [...]

Saturday foodstuffs

Last night I suddenly got starving hungry around 11:30. “Well, Jessica, if you were in bed….” I know. So I had a Laughing Cow wedge since I’m fruitless. I’ll add that on to today.
My excuse is that I was so busy studying my computer science homework and taking a quiz — which I bombed unfortunately [...]

Eating through Tuesday

Class went late Monday which threw me off. I was late to work. I hate that. Well, I wasn’t late because I was in by the implied cut-off time but I am trying to hit closer to 8 a.m. than 9 [...]
