Light Sunday Supper

Today, I had planned my usual Sunday:  go to church, make lunch for us, knit and chat with my craft friends all afternoon and then have evening potluck and teach Bible study.  But, other events occurred and even though we sat there in the parking lot at church, with the food in the car, we turned around and headed back home.

So, when we got home, I made biscuits and summer sausage -- fed five of us for $6.

Tonight, we wanted something light -- and I had a bunch of lettuce since I was going to take a salad for tonight's potluck -- so I made egg salad sandwiches and salad for dinner.

Here's the breakdown:

• 15 eggs, sold 30 for $2.69, so $1.35.
• Loaf of bread, $1.19.
• Mayo, relish, yellow mustard, dash of tobasco, salt and onion powder -- about $0.75.
• Two heads of lettuce, $1.49 each -- $2.98.

So, that leaves us feeding 6 for a total of $6.27, and we have leftovers of a lot of lettuce and enough egg salad to make a couple of sandwiches.

Of course, the vegetarians liked it, but I got this from one of the carnivores:  "For a meatless dinner, it isn't bad."
