    It's just me now. I only cook what I am going to eat within 3 days. When I don't feel like eating leftovers I cook only 1/2 a chicken breast or 1 hamburger patty, 1/5 of a sausage rope, etc. Add a cup of my favorite veggie and that is my meal. I still buy items for my pantry. I do actually eat a whole can of Progresso soup as my whole meal. I do not like it left over. I always love the way you and your mom think. My best friend and I eat out once a week. We have a Pub that has daily specials for $8. We order one, split it, order water and split the tickets & tip. We eat out for $5 each. We have 3 places that let us do that. That is the only way we can have an outing.

    Love these tips. I try not to waste food. A few years ago I decided to work out the cost of my waste, eg if I bought 6 tomatoes and 1 went mouldy before it could be eaten, then 1/6th of the total price I paid for the tomatoes was deducted from the next week's grocery budget, as a dollar amount. It worked because I was overbuying. I became more aware and consequently, less wasteful. Another tip re the pickle juice, put thinly sliced (matchstick size) carrot sticks into pickle juice to make purple pickled carrots, Delicious!

      I couldn't agree more. I buy coffee, rooibos tea, powdered milk and cocoa powder. That's it. I drink water mostly. Home made hot chocolate in winter as a treat (no marshmallows!). I saw on an Australian "budget" food haul, they bought almost $50 in drinks (excluding the 30 litres of milk). It was all sugary and unnecessary beverages. And people wonder why they are (a) broke and (b) overweight!

    Stewed tomatoes? We used to have them as is for a side for dinner.
    You can have a balloon, I live near 3 military bases here in Jacksonville FL. We have helicopters...they circle around, then the planes take off, and they seem awfully low, like they are avoiding radar, and on, and on, and on. The news media also uses helicopters, and we have several bridges here in this city, so if there is an accident, etc, somebody's sending a chopper.
    I was taught to divide the meal plate as 1/4 of the plate to both the meat and your starch, and 1/2 the plate to veggies. My mother used to always make both a green veggie and an orange or yellow veggie.
    Again - I will miss you personally. Have a great time off.

Sometimes, if I am in town (25 miles from home) longer than expected, I will buy a package of peanut butter crackers to tide me over. I am learning to be thrifty again since I retired last year. I was used to a nurses salary and being single. Yes, I was spoiled, but I also helped my kids, food boxes, and homeless, etc. I buy 99% of my clothes from thrift stores.. but I have done this for years. New clothes prices are ridiculous. I let other people pay those prices and then donate them 😅. I nibble too much most days now that I am retired. I have all 3 of your books, so now I need to start cooking twice a week and eat for 7 days.
