We decided to eat them for dessert, dipped in melted butter with cinnamon and sugar. Clover opted to lick off the topping.
Lentil soup. We only eat meat 2-3 x/week. No meat in this meal.
Snowed in...AGAIN. Making crafts today.
It was her blog that inspired our plan for the month. Usually we spend 800-1000/month on food and household items. This is everything, including our pay as you go cell phones, diapers, batteries, beauty products. We buy meat and milk at the regular store too, nothing is bought separately.So, if we can pull it off, there will be a significant savings!
Yes, I'm documenting it all. Seriously, if this kind of thing does not interest you, you may not want to come by, although I hope you do ☺

i LOVE this!we spend $600 a month on everything...i'll be watching to see if i think i can do this...i just don't know if i have it in me right now...
Have you read her book? I looked it up on Amazon, was just wondering. Anxious to read about this. I could definitely use some help in this department. I do watch for good sales, like when Walmart had turkeys for 40 cents a pound, bought 4 of them. Good luck! It sure will help you put back that money for other things!
