    Next Week’s Meal Plan: 5 One-Pot Wonders for the Week Ahead
    My husband does all the dishes in our house. Which is fantastic, except for when he’s out of town and then not only do I have to make dinner, but I also have to do the dishes too. So when he occasionally travels for work, you better believe I pick meals that use as few dishes as possible so that when dinner is done, I can get everything cleaned up as quickly as possible. He probably wonders why I don’t do the same when he’s doing the dishes.

    11 Budget Shopping Tips from People Who Hate Grocery Shopping
    Usually I tell people that the reason I don’t like to grocery shop is because I have four small children. And that’s true! Taking them all to the grocery store, unbuckling them from the car, sprinting through the aisles before anyone has a meltdown, deflecting requests for the most random of items, and then getting all the food and all the children safely back home is not exactly a spa day. But in all honesty, even before I had any children, I didn’t like to grocery shop.

    The 12 Tips That Keep My Grocery Budget in Check
    There’s nothing quite like that sinking feeling in the checkout lane when the cheery cashier tells you the total for your groceries is $248. Especially when you feel like you hardly bought anything and you know you’ll be back at the store in a few days for another gallon of milk, more eggs, another couple boxes of cereal — all for probably another $83.
