Weekend Spending

My money leaks on the weekends. Here's a recap of this weekend's spending:

$22.00 (mini mani/pedi)
$17.00 (Hair appointment)
$25.00 (wedding gift)
$18.00 (Mac&Cheese ingredients)
$14.00 (Car wash)
$4.00 (Chick-fil-a) (unexpected trip to WS)
$22.00 (gas)
$30.00 (gas) (had to refill my hunk's car when I drove it to WS)
$2.00 (canned food)
Total: $152.00

*Shaking my head*

Weekend Recap
I went to a "free" party. Free is in quotes because I had to bring two canned goods. Sadly, I didn't have two canned goods in my pantry but had to buy two from the store. I guess I really like fresh (or frozen) food. At the party, I refused to pay $10.00 for a drink so asked for sprite and cranberry instead. Apparently soda is free at the bar. I like free.

I also attended my co-worker's wedding. Of course I had to look fab for the event! The wedding accounts for the mani/pedi and wedding gift. Oddly enough, I didn't have my hair appointment until the next day. Don't ask...

This weekend was also my uncle's 72nd birthday! Hence the $18.00 mac and cheese. I've been making homemade mac&cheese for about 10 years now. My family DEMANDS that I make it and bake TWO 8x10 pans. Now they've upped the request to three! I need them to know that cheese ain't cheap!

I got my car washed this weekend because me and Allie (my car) are sticking it out for the long haul and I thought it only fair that she get some pampering, too. Besides, my backseat was beginning to look like a closet. Clean car = happy me!
