Wing It Mom: Pantry Challenge

Pantry Challenge

The goal: by the end of the weekend to have a fully updated list of everything in the freezer and everything in the pantry.
The secondary goal: for the next month, only spend grocery money on necessities (eg. Milk) and reduce the food budget to $150-$200 for the month.
The ultimate goal: use the 'extra' money saved in the grocery budget to pay extra on the car. We are currently on track with our payoff schedule, paying it off early smacks of a challenge to me...

End date: end of February

"Therefore I tell you, do you be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is now life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? Any why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you needs them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
