I've been tracking my expenses on Numbers.
I discovered that I spent $1035 on food for the month.
Would this be considered excessive?
If there is 2 of you that sounds a little more than my food bill , that's about 145 english pounds a week , I spend about 80 quid a week on two people ( that's just food nothing else like bog paper etc )
There's three of us.
So that's not too bad then?
I buy organic fruit and vegetables, but I get a discount because I have a regular packaged order.
That includes loo paper and all the other household stuff as well.
I spend less than about £20 on food per week - I am on a very tight budget.
This week I will get more veg as I think I am not eating enough of it despite my hearty soup/broth.
Kale is supposed to be quite a good nutritional veg.
Is dried seaweed any good? Would I still benefit from it?
£20 a week

Flippen Heck Tem , times are tough. I could probably survive on £20 a week if I lived alone ( I've done it before ) but it would be Ramen noodles and nothing healthy whatsoever.
Now I feel guilty about joking about you being in prison and broth being a punishment - I got a big mouth sometimes

Ha ha no worries Mr Ferris - I don't mind and I find it funny.
Your humour puts a smile on my face so don't stop it please.
Listen, I have been pretty well off, financially, in the past.
I have also been skint. I am skint again but it makes no difference.
My life was no more or less better with money.
I have some tough decisions to make this year but this is life.
What is more important is friends and the warmth and happiness I get from them.
As Raleigh said before. I know people who are worse off than me.
I am trying to eat healthy so have included more legumes in my diet.
Soup is a way of me trying to get healthy and also cheap as chips.
