I
have embarked on a whirlwind crazy week this week that started quite early so I
wasn't able to get my usual post up on the blog this morning. But, better late than never. Right?
Last
week I watched a TV show on Hulu and a BBC mini serious Lady Chatterley on YouTube.
Both programs were free. I also
listened to music on YouTube.
We
continued to eat primarily from our pantry and freezer. I shopped for lettuce, spinach, a package of
tortillas and a half gallon of milk to round out what we had in our pantry and
freezer. I also bought a package of
hotdogs to use up the last of our hot dog buns.
We
gave our kitchen scraps to the neighbor's chickens.
Pantry
meals this week included stroganoff by using up a package of ground beef, half
an onion, a large can of cream of mushroom soup, some sour milk and rice for
Sunday dinner. Monday I used up the last
ball of dough in the freezer, the mozzarella and the rest of the sauce I had
set aside to make a cheese pizza. Tuesday
we polished off the last of the stroganoff.
Wednesday we had hot dogs for supper.
Thursday I used up a package of ground turkey, a package of fideo pasta
and a can of diced tomatoes and made up a batch of Sopa Seca. Friday we thawed out a bowl of beanless chili
and made nachos. Saturday we finished up
the leftover Sopa Seca.
Not much going on last week in the thrifty department. How was your thrifty week?
Yumm! Your stroganoff sounds good!!
ReplyDeleteThis morning I went to the grocery store to get milk and as I was passing the meat I found a managers special on split chicken breasts for $1.20/lb. Even though we have plenty of chicken in the house I couldn't resist buying a package of them. So tonight for dinner I making a huge bowl of chicken salad and using what's left for everyone's lunches the rest of the week. :)
Wow! Great price on the chicken. I'm jealous. Chicken salad sounds wonderful.
