Goals for the Week 9/15

Well last week was an epic fail for goals. I wasn't home for a couple days (was helping some relatives clear a bunch of junk out of their house) so I didn't accomplish anything on my list. The good news is that because I wasn't home, nearly all the recipes I planned for last week will be used for this week, so we had a really cheap grocery trip on Friday!
