Thank you for watching! It's been a long week of hot weather. I'm so ready for the Fall season in a few more months. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
I know what you mean, and it can be a challenge to go. But there's so much good stuff available, I'm going! And I'm gonna eat good in the neighborhood!
Thank you, Chris! Yes, the food pantry haul has been great, so glad to get all that I got. The mini-fridge sure was looking empty, you're right. Have a great night, Chris!
Thank you! I enjoyed all the meals, too. The toilet paper fit so good in the bag. I think it's a neat way to make my home look nice while storing the necessary items like toilet paper. Have a great day!
You can save a lot of space in your fridge by putting the entire container of salad into a zip lock gallon bag with a paper towel. Roll it up and press out the air before sealing. Store rolled baggies in fridge. I usually have between 1&3 baggies at a time. They also last longer.
Thank you! Shirts are $5 unless marked higher for the "boutique" area. I wait for the sales and swoop in for the savings! Last time I visited Goodwill, they were high. I hope you have a great week, too!
Whenever I get a salad, herbs, greens etc.. I go through them and pick anything out that's questionable.. I then lay out 2-3 paper towels and spread the salad on the out, fold over the paper towel like an envelope and put in a gallon ziplock bag.. roll the air out of bag and seal it. The ziplock bag is almost completely flat and takes up almost no room at all. The paper towel will absorb any moisture. I am able to keep things fresh for several weeks. Once a week I might change the paper towel but isn't always necessary. Rinse the bag out and reuse :)
That's a great suggestion, thank you for letting me know. It would save a lot of room in the mini-fridge! Will have to give it a try. Have a great night!
I bet that's beautiful to have a set of the tables. I would love to have brought home the table, maybe in the future when I have my little shed freed up, I can start working on decorating it! Or, if I get a porch awning, could add some items to doll it up!
Hi Tink! Thank you, I enjoyed the meals very much. You've got the matching heart shelf! It would be great for plants. I hope you are staying cool too, the weather is getting hot. Have a great night, Tink!
I really think the pesto was the best thing you got this week. I bet it tasted good. The blue shirt looked wonderful on you and I have a tote bag that I keep face cloths and extra toothpaste in it so I like how you use yours for the bathroom tissue, have a good week🥰🥰
Thank you! The pesto is delicious. It's spicy, I like it! The blue shirt will be my "Summer Uniform" on the hottest days. I hope you have a great week, too! PS - I like how you use your tote bag for the face cloths and toothpaste, smart idea.
Sara, love watching your videos! I do wish you would prepare meals with the raw meats you get.. you are so blessed at thrift stores!! Loved your beautiful shirt!! Keep the videos coming and thanks for sharing..
Thank you so much! I will try to add a home cooked meal with one of the meats I get. The thrift store is wonderful, so glad to get the shirt for summer! Have a great night!
I love your linen shirt... very cute. You got a nice little haul.You should of got the heart shaped stand...great for plants😊. Say hello to mr turtle. Hope you had a great week& we will see you Friday.🦋🌸🐠🐚🦜🌴🥰
Yes, the little wooden heart stand would be perfect for plants! The linen shirt is comfy cool, glad to have it for summer. Mr. Turtle is guarding the porch and says Hello! See you on Friday, have a wonderful week, too!
Thank you so much! The food is wonderful, glad to get it all. The shirt is perfect for summer because it's heating up outside, almost officially summer. Have a great night!
Fun video. I think that the bamboo stand at the dump was a towel rack. 😊 I like the shirt, blue is a good color on you. I try to buy cotton or linen clothing when I can find it.
Thank you! I think you're right on the towel rack, it had a wicker look to it. The shirt is wonderful to have, perfect for summertime. I'm trying to wear more "natural fibers", too. I think I'm going to do a closet cleanout soon. Have a great night!
Thank you very much! I enjoy shopping at the food pantry. I love bringing home all the goodies! The shirt is great, so glad I got it for Summer. Have a great day!
hi, sarah! i love j.jil and you got a great deal on the shirt. linen is such a comfortable fiber in the summer. lots of good foods from the pantry. i hope you have a good evening and days to come.
Thank you, Karen! I have been researching how "natural fibers" can be better to wear in hot weather. Finding the j.jill shirt was so great to be able to wear on really hot days. The food pantry meals have been good, so glad to get the many fruits and veggies. Have a wonderful night, Karen and stay cool!
Hi Sarah!❤ I enjoyed your haul this week. You m glad that you got some nice hot meals too! I like salads, but there’s nothing like a good meat and veggies dinner. Hey, you grabbed some good stuff at the thrift store this week too! I loved both the blue denim shirt. It fit you really well, and the bag is lovely. You can use it for a lot of different things ❤
Thank you! I love a good old-fashioned hot meal, too! I gotta get my kitchen set up with a vent fan so I can do more "hot food" cooking in the Summer. The thrift store finds were great to get. Love using the bag for storage. Have a great day!
I love that linen shirt and it was very expensive originally. I love big totes for organizing. I have one bag with bandages and related products, several craft supply bags and any project has its own tote bag. Beautifully plated meals and the blue hydrangeas near Mr. Turtle’s head.
Thank you! The linen shirt was a great bargain and so comfy. I'm glad I picked it up along with the tote bag. That's a good idea you have to use bags to store projects you are working on! Mr. Turtle likes his flowers and blue suits him well. Have a great day!
You always give me ideas for tasty salad combos. It's so hot salads win as my fave. Cold meatloaf sammy and salad would be good too especially on your sourdough. Love your tote bag great storage for tp.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy salads, too. It's the perfect weather for a cold sandwhich! I'm loving the tote bag also for TP storage. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you very much! Mr. Turtle does well in the heat. Me not so much! I am looking forward to Fall and Winter. Have a great night and thank you for watching!
Should have made an easy salad dressing using the olive oil, mustard and honey. Maybe a little lemon juice or the apple cider vinegar. A little salt and black pepper and you have a flavorful salad dressing.
I love this latest living area setup... Your new top looks great on you (so nice and airy for the summer months). I need to find somewhere that sells sourdough rosemary bread near me (it looks delicious)... you got some really great food this week! I hope you have a great week Sarah, and thanks for sharing a part of your life with us!
Thank you! I'm loving the living room! I let go of two items and that helped a lot to free up some floor space. I'm happy with the new shirt, it will be my "Summer Uniform"! I hope you can try that sourdough bread, it's yummy. Have a wonderful week, too!
Seeing Honey Bunny in video's always makes my day. 😊😊😊 I enjoyed watching your video today and all the yummy meals you are able to eat. Enjoy your week! ❤😊
@@CareFreeLivingChannel your welcome I look forward to your videos they are fun and the food is wonderful it helps people that are afraid and ashamed to go to the good bank and no way should they be have a blessed day sweetheart ❤️
Thank you very much! One day I'll get a dog again. I had my dogs for many years and it was wonderful to have a furry friend and hear them walking through our home. I miss that!
How much can you get when you go to the food pantry ? The reason I ask is I watched one guy and all he got was chips and junk food. He didn’t really get anything that was nutritious or healthy and I’m just wondering if they’re all different or you have a certain price range you can use. I felt sorry for the man because I’m sure all the junk he got he wasn’t gonna eat because he was a very older gentleman that should’ve given him more nutritious food for his age. That honey bunny was after your lettuce.😂Love going to the dump ❤
Great Question! My food pantry has limits for each category. Items like desserts, vegetables and prepared heat and serve meals change by the day due to inventory. Some items have a fixed amount like canned meat I can get up to 2 cans if I want. Each food pantry has different inventory based on how it's ran. Some pantries have more desserts to get out but not so much in nutritious food items. I have an usual food pantry because they coordinate with "high end" stores!
The shirt is very pretty. Did I miss something? Wasn’t there a table that you spent a lot of money on? Do I just not see it or did you decide to get rid of it? That was a nice produce haul. A lot of good items. 💙🩷❤️💚🧡🦋🦋🦋
Thank you! I love the shirt, it's comfy and nice and cool in the heat. Yes, I have a dining table in the living room opposite the sink area. I'm keeping this table but it is a big table when both ends are extended. I keep one end down to save room! I use it as my desk and to eat meals at, too.
The next video will be released on Friday June 21st at 7 pm Eastern. Please turn on your notifications so you don't miss it! See you then!!!
Sarah you do your channel well and you should be very proud of yourself
Thank you very much! I love making videos!
I love your upbeat positive demeanor. I feel like I'm watching an adult Mister Roger's neighborhood program.❤ You always bring a smile to my face 🌼🌼🌼
Awww thank you so much! I'm happy you feel that way. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you Sarah! I hope you’re having a happy week and that life is treating you kind❤😊
Thank you for watching! It's been a long week of hot weather. I'm so ready for the Fall season in a few more months. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Nice haul.Thank you for shining a positive light on the food pantry so many equate the food pantry with shame but they shouldn't.
I know what you mean, and it can be a challenge to go. But there's so much good stuff available, I'm going! And I'm gonna eat good in the neighborhood!
I enjoy your videos.
Thank you very much! I'm glad to know you're enjoying my videos!

You got some delicious food again, and just in time. That mini fridge was just about empty! 😂 Nice thrift store finds, too. Have a good evening!
Thank you, Chris! Yes, the food pantry haul has been great, so glad to get all that I got. The mini-fridge sure was looking empty, you're right. Have a great night, Chris!

Great idea, thank you! I would like to save room in the mini-fridge and I do eat a lot of salad so that's a win-win idea!
Haha, I think Honey Bunny wanted the Arugula, you caught her just in time 😂
I gotta watch that Honey Bunny, she likes salads, too!
Super cute shirt! Probably cost at least $50 new.
Thank you so much! It feels nice and cool for the season. I prefer to buy my clothing from the thrift store especially when price is marked down!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel 85% of my clothes and home decor is from a thrift store or yard sale! Stay cool. 😎
I love shopping at thrift stores, too!
I like the shirt and I think that is an expensive brand great find
Thank you! I like the color a lot and it feels cool in this hot weather. Summer is upon us! And this will be my "Summer Uniform" outfit!

Thank you, yes linen fabric is great in the Summer weather. So glad to get it. Have a great day!
Great haul. You have a nice thrift store. You couldn't get a pair of socks at our Goodwill for $1.25. So envious. Have a good week.
Thank you! Shirts are $5 unless marked higher for the "boutique" area. I wait for the sales and swoop in for the savings! Last time I visited Goodwill, they were high. I hope you have a great week, too!
Great video! Nice shirt thrift find. God bless!

I have 2 of those heart shaped tables. Bought them about 30 years ago at a craft fair.
I bet that's beautiful to have a set of the tables. I would love to have brought home the table, maybe in the future when I have my little shed freed up, I can start working on decorating it! Or, if I get a porch awning, could add some items to doll it up!
I loved all meals plated! I really would of choose the heart shelf seeing how I have a small wooden one like that! Have great week stay cool! ~ Tink
Hi Tink! Thank you, I enjoyed the meals very much. You've got the matching heart shelf! It would be great for plants. I hope you are staying cool too, the weather is getting hot. Have a great night, Tink!

Thank you, Judy! This shirt arrived just in time for the heat of Summer. It's been super hot. Have a great night Judy and hope you stay cool, too!
Pink lemonade spindrift is good.

You can make strawberry vinegar out of the strawberry tops instead of throwing them out. It makes a tasty dressing instead of apple cider vinegar
That’s an interesting idea, thank you!

You never show your freezer part. Would like to see that also
I might show you the mini-freezer one day. It's about 1 cubic foot, part of the mini-fridge!
