And gave her a little cash give. I am poorer now. Good thing I get my annual bonus next week!Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01817017829323955078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-85168383725552433842011-03-09T21:31:15.306-05:002011-03-09T21:31:15.306-05:00I did not turn on the heat at all since it is no l...I did not turn on the heat at all since it is no longer a balmy high 60s-low 70s. Plus, I had an outrageous heating bill from when we had snow and subfreezing temps for a week. Today,I wore shoes, socks, pants and a tee and sweat shirt. I cooked ten lbs of leg/thigh quarters and froze them. The broth will be cooked with finely chopped vegetables as soon as I get it cold and skim the fat. Then, I will add noodles and a bit of the meat. This is a gift to a friend who helped me. Oh, yeah, he got all ten lbs of frozen thighs and legs. He will bring back leftovers for hens.<br /><br />My friend brought back his meat scraps for the hens. Since I buy no chicken food, they had one of their own eggs scrambled with powdered milk and oatmeal. Since I am overrun with eggs once again, they get one each day when they need the nutrition. <br /><br />He helped me get to my big freezer so I could get two 1-lb packages of ground beef. I brought back one of sausage and one of ground beef. Tomorrow, I will make spaghetti, using a jar of canned spaghetti that was on sale for 50 cents. The pasta and beef were free, so I am all set.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-44778747205284163512011-03-09T15:53:36.780-05:002011-03-09T15:53:36.780-05:00Today I saved money by deliberately forgetting to ...Today I saved money by deliberately forgetting to send a check with one of my daughters for piano lessons! <br />I guess I'll have to send it next week...McValhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00285808958951068897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-63151884097246593082011-03-09T14:43:07.229-05:002011-03-09T14:43:07.229-05:00Who remembers what happened yesterday?

Today...Who remembers what happened yesterday? LOL<br /><br />Today I made a casserole using a package of wild rice that's been in the cabinet for a while, some leftover venison steak, some leftover brown gravy. I'll serve it with leftover veggies and a chocolate cobbler I made this afternoon from scratch.<br /><br />Same as you, I washed a load in the HE washing machine and hung the clothes to dry on racks. I used one T. of homemade detergent and no fabric softener.<br /><br />I made my grocery list based on the sales in today's grocery ads, the inventory already in my pantry and my weekly menu plan.<br /><br />It's an overcast day, but there is still enough natural light for most tasks without turning on the lights.<br /><br />I printed out a recipe (as my desktop computer is no where near my kitchen) on the back side a handout that Kat brought home from school using the most efficient setting on my printer.<br /><br />I wore shoes and a sweater with my normal clothing to stay warm instead of turning up the heat.Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.com
