In this week's blog, I look at an example of hope in budgeting, specifically regarding food expenses. I include a link to a useful YouTube video on the subject, but I include a quick summary in case you want to skip the video. You can read the blog at [https://hledgerfan.com/specific-example-of-hope-and-hledger/](https://hledgerfan.com/specific-example-of-hope-and-hledger/).
