A few months ago, I decided to update my paper-and-pen ways and try online planning again, with an old favorite, Plan to Eat. Now, it needs to be said that I'm a lazy Plan to Eat user. I don't make use of all of its MANY features and tools, but I use it in a really simple manner, sticking to the Recipe and Planner components, not the Shopping Lists (which I know many people find extremely useful).

My update as I head into week three: This afternoon, we went to Costco with some friends. Walking around was pure torture for my husband, who kept noticing all sorts of tempting and yummy-looking items. Each time he would look at me and go to put something in our cart, I said, "No, we don't have any extra grocery money this month". [...]
Welcome to the second week of the Eat From the Pantry and Freezer Challenge! Find out what it's all about or read my post from Week 1. My update as I head into week two: The first week of these challenges are usually the easy ones. Last week it just felt like I was trying to focus a bit more on using up some things we have a lot of.
