How much do you spend on food on average per month and per day? Including both groceries and dining/takeout.

Edit: you guys are my people lol. Everyone in the finance subs are astonished but everyone here seems to be in the same ballpark.

Going by the last 4.5 months, I’ve spent an average of $271/month. ($9/day). That includes some coffee shops, two expensive steak dinners, and a few restaurant lunches. I actually don’t really cook either.

Just thought about how people are saying groceries are just as expensive as dining out but in reality, groceries alone would be about $6.50/day for me. Even when I get 2 meals out of restaurant food, it’s still cheaper to make food at home.

I thought my Mexican was way better when I was doing it lol. Anyway, my beautiful cat shows up at some point.

Once again out of practice and reminding myself I’m not quite ready to jump into some stuff.

This is Keiko. She’s got mats on her side butt. I did the thing ur not supposed to do which is cut them out with scissors. But it’s not easy preventing mats from forming after uneven cuts like that. Considering having her shaved by a groomer. Either just that area or a lions cut. Thoughts?

I WILL run out of dust before getting to everyone.
I’m going in order of the comments. You can see where you are in line by reading my confirmed trades.

If you need anything shareable you can still comment what you need. I might get to it eventually.

Not sure why I thought it would be ok to hike in early May lol. I had done the AT in 2014 and remember Franconia being really cool so I picked the ridge loop to do with a friend. As we got there we saw how low the snow was on the mountains and already I was concerned.

About 9 miles, 6 hours.

Super windy, snowy, and pretty cold. At about halfway (on the ridge) both my quads were cramping and I was even contemplating turning back since at least I knew what to expect on the way back. But we kept going. Cramps eventually stopped after i chugged a bottle of water with electrolytes and put on a second pair of pants. Trail was easy enough to follow thanks to footprints and piles of rocks. But I was still worried about dying up there.

I’d recommended researching trails before hiking them lol. It was kinda scary and super uncomfortable. But kinda cool too.
