    One of the main categories I where I spend money is on food when I don't want to cook or feel like I don't have food in my fridge/cabinets when I actually do. In practicing simplicity, I'm able to push myself to use what I have to make a delicious meal. That sometimes takes some thought about which ingredients will work well together.
