Sounds great! I've always wanted to break down my cost per meal, but something I've never done.
Thanks!
Looks good...I should try to figure out the cost break down on ours sometime.

You know, I don't know if I have or not. Let me check, if not I'll email it to you, or post it.

Your menu sounds really good this week. I saw the recipe on The Happy Housewife website last week for the cinnamon rolls and I am so excited to be trying them this weekend. They look so good so hopefully they turn out okay.
Mmmm...it all sounds good!
