Day 16

We started our vegetable garden in late May and after 4 long months, we FINALLY reaped the rewards of our toil today! Behold! Our happy little garden!



There is something uniquely satisfying from eating the fruits of one's labor. The vegetable just tastes sweeter and more tender. I don't know what to do with our two precious tomatoes yet but perhaps I shall make some simple bruschetta tomorrow. Tonight's dinner was a chicken chow men with zuchini, carrots, and garlic. So simple and quick to make yet so satisfying.



Total Spent on food today: $43 (from groceries that weren't used today)
Estimated cost of food: leftovers for lunch and breakfast. Dinner: $1 chicken, $.10 for corn, and $.10 for carrots. Everything else came from our garden or papa-in-law's noodle factory. $1.20
