A post is forthcoming. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Quick tips:  1)one of our biggest savings has been cutting back on meat consumption.  The bean challenges have been helping too. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2) Although our brown basmati rice was not organic, we bought from bulk bins at Cub.  Co-ops Whole Foods are great places to buy organically from bins.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5180693598187739903/5783229149731996526/comments/default/1665237834615488405'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5180693598187739903/5783229149731996526/comments/default/1665237834615488405'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.strivinggreen.com/2008/11/week-17-bean-challenge-1-dinner-week.html?showComment=1227876720000#c1665237834615488405' title=''/><author><name>Striving Green</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05418204830305087352</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BV--KrmpSUo/SNWwcu1sW6I/AAAAAAAAANA/b53XZ9QDyNU/S220/profile.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.strivinggreen.com/2008/11/week-17-bean-challenge-1-dinner-week.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5180693598187739903.post-5783229149731996526' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5180693598187739903/posts/default/5783229149731996526' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1016039147'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5180693598187739903.post-2532514069518872828</id><published>2008-11-28T05:25:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2008-11-28T05:25:00.000-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Those sound so good!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Where do you do most o...</title><content type='html'>Those sound so good!&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Where do you do most of your grocery shopping?

So inspiring and the food entries are my fave....mainly because your little girl is every bit as picky as mine and I now know another Mom who serves a variety of foods and still has a picky one.
