Each week I go grocery shopping, my one goal is to make sure that I am eating healthy to show that even without a kitchen one can eat healthy and not put Top Ramen or Kraft Mac n Cheese in their mouths.
Each week I go to Oliver's with $35 in my budget making sure to not go over it.
Note: I have only gone over twice since starting this challenge. The first time I was over by $1.45 and the next time I was over $0.90.
I'm pretty proud of myself for doing that.
Like how proud I was this week for buying healthy, fresh produce and other necessities and only being $3 under.
So proud.

Ugh, so proud.
And I even bought flax seed. Just imagine, a 21 year old in shorts, sandals and a Vagina Monologues t-shirt and a messy bun buying flax seed like a grown up.
I do have a recipe for flax seed so that will not go to waste like my stale bread, I promise the flax seed will be in use and I will inspire all college students to buy flax seed and make them feel like grown-ups in a grown up world.
I mean even saying the word "flax seed" just makes me sound like a hipster grown-up, doesn't it?
