must feed

In theory, cooking your own meals at home is cheaper than going out to eat. I put that to the test today...

$4.60 Strip Steak
$0.55 Onion
$1.99 Mushrooms
$0.72 Tomato
---------------------------
$7.86 Total from Heinen's

Add to that the probably $1.00 worth of lettuce, oil, dressing that I used. About $8.88 or so. Pricey for a home-cooked meal, but still cheaper than eating out and getting something similar. Only problem is that I overcooked the steak. :-(

Next time I'll do better.
