Eating cheap

I almost had a minor emergency this week... I locked myself out of my safe, in which I had left most of my cash, both US and Thai, as well as my ATM card (apparently this was a bad idea). I finally got the key for it the next day, but I was a little worried by evening!
We were off Wednesday and Thursday morning which was a nice change and I planned on going to Free Bird for brunch but when I tried to get money the safe wouldn't unlock. They told me they would reset it in the afternoon and I had 143baht (a little less than $5) so I wasn't too concerned and I switched my plans and went to the cheaper nearby cafe to have my regular Thai tea.
I got home from class and was eager to get money so that I could go get a decent dinner. I'd taught that night and wanted to splurge on Mexican food as a reward. Unfortunately they forgot to reset it and the only people who could had left for the day so I set out to see what I could find for 38 baht.
Thankfully the market has lots of cheap food. I even got dessert!
