One night 2 who eat were late for supper. By the time they got here and got done eating, my mind was no longer on supper. It was almost midnight before I walked in to the kitchen again.....wasted: beef with gravy, mashed potatoes and peas :( All that could have been frozen.
I also failed at trying to save the seeds out of the orange, red and yellow peppers we had sliced for Mother's Day. I put them into separate bags to get them laid out to dry later. It wasn't until Friday that I wonder what was squishy in my jacket pocket. Oh boy...in the trash they had to go!
I have still been using the second hand etc, larger bags for trashbags, but the last one of those is in the can now. That means I do need to stop at the dollar store and buy a box of bags. I do have $1 and some change left in my wallet after cashing a $5 refund check that came in the mail today. The rest of it I spent to buy a few stamps.
I did my Walgreen's shopping on Mother's Day. I'm happy with it!
One frugal thing I did this week was to use the backs of paper I had already printed, but no longer needed, when printing out things for Jasmine's 50 States Lapbook. We aren't short on paper, but I sure can't see wasting it.
I hope to have better things to report next Monday.
