    Thumbs up A Gleam Of Hope

    I called my DS in Baltimore Monday night and he told me his buddy and him went to the grocery store got a cooler , ice, and meat, bread chips, and some drinks to eat in their room nights instead of eating in the cafe
    every night. He said it was to darn expensive and they only spent $30.00 between the 2 of them for about 4 days worth of food.
    He said eating out 2 times a day for 4 days was to much and to expensive
    Can't wait for some home cooking
    Maybe he's been listening after all. I can only hope

    I taught my DD at a young age to be frugal & I'm happy to say she is still that way
