Trying something new...

A friend recently blogged about going to all cash for spending. Tim and I would really like to do this - we know we spend too much on the credit card. Even though we pay it off every month, there is a lot of wasteful spending. So, this month we are trying to make the transition to using mostly cash and tracking our credit card spending better. For groceries, I have been putting a certain amount on a Kroger card and this seems to help with that. Our problem comes with eating out. Our family loves to eat out! I know it isn't all that good for you, but it is a hard habit to break. I like to cook - but haven't been planning as I should. That is my main goal and project is to plan meals and actually have the food on hand to fix them. This is something I know we need to do. More to come...
