Grocery shopping creatively?

I really like LOVE to grocery shop.I realize how strange that sounds but I just do and here's why; I love to budget, pick out new meals, create menus, and spend money.I love all of these things because I love to be creative and organized. Searching the Internet for a new wow meal,running home to add my latest receipt to the budget, and color coordinating my calendar are the little things I find fun. While I don't always have the money for a new pair of shoes, or that cute shirt I just saw on Pinterest, I do always have a budget for food. Hey, when you're a "shopaholic" you gotta make do with what you have and it's not like we can't eat, right? :) I am definitely not the girl with all the coupons, running from store to store to get awesome prices, but I do keep our budget at a mere $250 each month with a $100 eating out allowance so I feel like I am doing OK with it. I sometimes make up my own recipes and other times I find really great ones that other ladies just like me come up. Either way, I would love to share my menu plan with you all this week. Please feel free to share any favorite recipes or cool things you like to do to stay organized!
