No More Starbucks!


Being a college student, one can go broke very quickly from simply buying food. It seems there is never enough time in a day to cook let alone sit down and have a meal. Not only does eating out break the bank, but it breaks my butt, if you know what I mean...

One of my New Year's goals is to stop substituting coffee for a meal. Coffee is not breakfast!



In the past,  I have tried on numerous occasions to bring my lunch to school and work to avoid buying the delicious fast foods that surround the campus. I can usually keep it up for about a month and a half before I give up and need to have Einstein Bagel's and coffee three days a week.  It's quick and convenient and melts in my mouth.


But this semester I don't think I can get away with that since I spent more than my spending money on my trip to Georgia and am in the process of looking for another job. So I found this lovely blog called Enlightened Cooking with some healthy, nonperishable food ideas that I will be stocking up on for this semester.

I can't promise no Einstein Bagels, but I will be healthy this semester and save money!

My favorite ideas so far are the dried fruits, cheeses and soups to go. I think I will also reignite my kindergarten senses and get some apple sauce cups and graham crackers. Delicious!
