Nothing major to report this week. I worked three days and felt achy for most of the week, so I was grateful to have two days off this week.
We went to the Goodwill store here to look around Friday evening. We picked up a few things for 99¢ for the kitchen, and a couple of shirts for my daughter.
We went to Publix also to get in on the buy one get one free Welch's grape juice deal. I also picked up a free crescent roll and free cinnamon roll from Pillsbury using coupons from that site. No other grocery shopping this week.
I've been busy cleaning, laundry, and taking off garbage again, which are my usual Saturday chores.
Dinner tonight so far is green beans with potatoes, and carrots. That is as far as I have planned.
Finally, I would like to share a few useful links with you today...
Recipes and Tips for Healthy, Thrifty Meals - This is an oldie, but a goodie. I used to have a hard copy of this, but the publication is online now and offers several made from scratch recipes to help people stretch their budgets.
Better Times Cookbook - I've shared this link before. Bob Waldrop runs this site. I have the newspaper that he printed years ago, but the information is all online now and also offers made from scratch recipes to help people save money on many things.
I hope you all have a great Saturday.
Belinda

Thanks for the links. Why do you suppose so few green and other colorful veggies are included in menus? Magazines do the same. My family has always filled the table with a variety of veggies. I know that 4 generations of us have offered many veggies.
ReplyDeleteBe well.
I'm not sure, I have wondered the same thing. Many times that is all we eat some days. Last night we just had green beans, potatoes, and carrots. Filled us up just fine. :)
