He was really surprised that I spend less than half of what I normally do, but then I had to go back to the store yesterday and ended up spending more than I planned. Then there's the trip to the asian market, and the co-op for some bulk stuff. Although we are a member at the co-op, I hardly shop there (too expensive and not much selection), but I went this week to get some maple syrup in bulk- thanks to Shawn for the tip. As you can see, I hardly saved for my goal (cutting on food bills) this week, but hey, I could try again next week, right? And that, I plan to do. Midweek Munchies sponsored by HARMONIA |

WOW! Great list!!! Here are my questions and comments for you this week!
What are your planning for the barley flour?
That's so neat that we both bought green curry paste! Yes, the small things in life amuse/amaze me.
Tell me more about Opo Squash. I have never bought or even seen it around!
Hi! I dropped by to see your list, and I'm curious about your red bean buns, frozen ??
Wow lady! What a list! Can I come over? I suppose this DOES feed a family of 5. This all looks wonderful and I am looking forward to what you are going to be preparing.
Hi, Harmonia! The barley flour is for baking from Vive Le Vegan.
I love it, too when I see items I bought in the other MMs and blogs.
You'll find opo squash in most asian markets. This is one I'm familiar with from back home. And that's what we call it in Filipino- "opo".
Hi, Vicki! See the February 2nd Vegan Lunch Box blog for the red bean dumplings or buns. I used to give them a cold shoulder at the store until I read Jenn's post. My kids love them.
Leslie, you can come over as long as you call ahead so we can pick up all the stuff (toys, books, socks, etc) on the floor first!
As you can see, I haven't posted much, and yet a lot of these stuff have been used already!
I'll be visiting everyone's blogs later on- after lunch and Pilates, I hope.
You are one super-busy lady! And still blogging... hmph.
I think I'd rather come over when the house is "as is" or if I did come over, I would probably end up contributing to the items on the floor! I think it's cute, and it's just kid stuff (unless it's your husband's toys and socks! j/k).
Thanks for the info on the Opo
