Slowly Saving Money...

So here I am... writing what I spend each day. Today was a little worse than yesterday... but let's so how this goes. I think that if I see what I'm spending each day... I won't want to spend so much JUST so I won't have to write it in here as another expense.

Yesterday:
E-Bar: $4.96 (Ice Storm for Me...Espresso for Chris)
Costco: $12.99 (Rotisserie Chicken for Dad... Otter Pops for Chris)
Nordstrom: +$37.71 (Returned a slip that I have not used bc I returned the skirt I was going to use it with)
TOTAL: +$19.76 (YAY! I ended up with being in the POSITIVE!!)

Today:
Toast: $37.91 (Waffle, Turkey Sausage, Cranberry Juice for Chris.... Smoked Salmon Omelette, Fresh Fruit, Iced Cappuccino, & 1 Red Velvet Cupcake and 1 Vanilla Cupcake for me + Tax and Tip)
WinCo: $19.50 (Winky Liter, Marie Claire Magazine for Me, Sunflower Seeds & Cheeto Puffs & Starch for Chris)
TOTAL: $57.41 spent

FYI: I do NOT always pay for Chris' crap. It just so happens that both these days I paid for random shit he wanted but trust me.. he pays about 90% of the time. :-)

Today was a fun day. It was "Susie Day," which means that Chris has to do whatever I want to do. So I decided to eat lunch somewhere that we have not gone to. I did my research last night and found this "trendy" place called " TOAST." I read that they are known for their cupcakes and that it's a super trendy spot. We got there and there are a lot of "trendy" people sitting outside and we're thinking "Uh-oh... snobby people."

Turns out the food was super good. My iced cappuccino was the best that I have ever had and I've had tons! I'm making Chris take me back again sometime soon because I liked it that much. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure....

On the way to LA this is what Chris looks like...


Here's Heritage Square off the 110 Freeway. I've always wanted to see the Victorian houses here...
The 110 Sign.... and Chris' dirty windshield....


TOAST!

Chris impatiently waiting for his food...


The BEST Iced Cappuccino EVER...


My Smoked Salmon Omelette, Marble Rye, and Fresh Fruit (Strawberries, Kiwi, Mango, Papaya, Grapes, Blueberries, Watermelon, & HoneyDew)


Chris' Belgium Waffle, Turkey Sausage and Whipped Cream...


Vanilla Cupcake & Red Velvet Cupcake... notice how Chris' cupcake is pink??? He's crazy...


YUM! Couldn't wait until I got home... ate it on the way to the freeway....


My cupcake after I chomped into it...


Chris tired from driving over an hour in traffic...


WinCO... the best place EVER.... it's like a super clean Food 4 Less but it's opened 24 hours a day. AND they sell bulk candy!!!! That's where I went to buy random stuff and Winky's cat liter.

After all the errands, watched the rest of The Pursuit of Happiness and ate some Spicy Pork with Rice (which Chris paid for..... woo~hoo!)

That's all for today. Good bye!
