My Sunday Challenge

My Sunday challenge was multi-fold, 1) Attend a live church service, 2) Play a chess game on-line with a buddy in Sayulita, 3) complete a Spanish session on Rosetta Stone,4) create a menu for my dinner & a movie night, 5) shop the local farmers' market for shrimp and a movie and 6) spend less than $10 for dinner.....all by NOON.

 
 
Ok, I watched a service from St. Peter, in Modesto, CA, played a chess game, listened to some basic Spanish, and checked the fridge for food ideas.  Pesto Shrimp con pasta was my choice and the camarones at the market looked great.

I was also able to find several new releases for tonight's movie night.  The Life of Pi, Flight, Safe Haven, Zero Dark Thirty, and Beast of the Wild South. 100 pesos/5 movies

Well, you cannot have pesto shrimp w/o some wine and good bread, so I added those to my challenge.



So how did I do on the food part of the challenge?  Camarones 22p/10 pcs, Pasta 10p, Pan 3p, vino 15p/glass, movie 20p, popcorn Free, Pesto Sauce Free. (fiends gave me the pesto and popcorn)  So the total for dinner, movie, popcorn, and wine was:  70p or $5.60 for one person.  or 117p for two/servings.  Bon Apetite!
