Yesterday wasn't a great day so I missed my weekly update on my $25 per week challenge.
Picked This Week:
Mignonette Lettuce x 3 @ $1.00 each = $3.00
Broccoli 120g @ $7.99kg = $1.00 (ish)
Silverbeet - small bunch = $1.00 (? was a very small bunch)
Shallots x 3 = $1.00 (see a pattern in my guestimates emerging here? LOL)
Parsley x 2 = $0.50
Total $6.50
The most exciting news of the week though was the meal where we had ONLY vegetables grown ourselves. We had silverbeet, broccoli, pumpkin and red cabbage. It was VERY exciting. I can't wait until that's more the "norm" rather than the "exception".
Hopefully DH will get the things I need to build up one of my garden beds soon. Then it'll be time to start thinking about what I'm going to plant in readiness for summer.

Hmmm - if you had a meal made of ONLY the veges from your garden, I would say the estimate to be much higher than $6.50 - we do the "if you went to a restaurant for this meal" calculation for that!!!
That sounds like a good idea Jeanie. :) Would make reaching my $25 quite easy. LOL.
