I am really starting to like this 4 week mean plan thing.  For one, it really does save money, but for another, it really saves a lot of time thinking.  It also helps me see more clearly how long my staples last.  In typing this out, I see I have a lot of bread the first week and next to none the second.  Well, I guess we will see how that goes. 

The bean eating is going well, the bean cooking is a little tedious, mostly because it requires thinking!  I get tempted to buy canned, but those dry beans are so stinking cheap!  They lure me back.
