Meat and poultry are usually the most expensive items on my grocery list. We eat mostly poultry and I only buy it when it is on sale. I stock up if the price is exceptionally good, like the $1.59/lb chicken breasts a few months ago. A price like that happens rarely though, so I don’t […]

I have a grandmother who would never dream of buying containers to store leftovers or food for the freezer. She has always reused food containers, such as glass pickle jars or plastic cool-whip and sherbert containers, so I am not quite sure how or why I got started buying plastic food storage containers. Maybe it […]

My favorite time of year is apple season. Every fall, we head to a local orchard for a fun-filled day. There’s a corn maze, a pumpkin patch, a children’s play area with slides, swings, peddle-powered go-carts, and a corn box, and of course, apple picking. While my husband and the kids are playing, I head […]

If you aren’t growing green beans, you might want to consider it. They are the gift that keeps on giving. I planted 4 squares worth in my square foot garden and we have had them twice for dinner so far. I just put 5 cups in my freezer and many young beans are still on […]

My hot peppers are growing faster than I can use them, so I popped them in the freezer. I washed them, cut the tops off and because they are long peppers, I cut them in half and put them in a freezer bag. Make sure to squeeze the air out of the bag. In the […]

My herbs needed a haircut. So I cut back the parsley, oregano, thyme and dill and cleaned them. I removed the leaves and discarded the stems. I then threw the leaves in freezer bags and flattened the air out of the bags. I’ll store in the freezer until I’m ready to use. I decided against […]

I learned a very valuable lesson at the grocery store yesterday. I had flour on my shopping list. I blew through the ..99/5 lb flour that I stocked up on at Christmas time and I haven’t been able to buy it at that price ever since. As I was about to pick up a 5 […]

My kids love baby carrots with dressing as a snack, so I buy them often when they are on sale. I had forgotten about a bag and a half in the fridge and when I found them, they were dried out and just not that appetizing for any of us. The thought of throwing away […]
