A Week without Shopping: Done!



Phew! I did it. my week-long resolution to NOT to shop for groceries (until I am done with the ones in my freezer & pantry) worked. :) To be very honest, I was not sure, me myself if I was gonna make it as I am so addicted to getting new stuff every Saturday or Sunday. I am off for my weekend grocery shopping today and my list this week has some interesting items which I have never tried before.

I always played safe with herbs (use cilantro or mint) and never tried out other stuff abundantly available here in local markets. On my list, I have Sage, which I am dying to try out.

..and Risotto - I had this on my mind for quite some time and every time I see a new dish with Risotto on Food Network, I want to try it out.

Rest all are the same old stuff - onions, tomatoes etc etc.

Today is the last day for Recipes for Rest of Us:Dinner. Please send in your entries before midnight today.

Have a great week ahead.

Cheers,
Siri
