batten down the hatches
Okay. I've really got to figure out how to cook and shop with healthy and cheap in mind. Money's really tight and it's time to let the OCD in me to shine! Yes, I did just say that. The OCD in me is totally stoked about saving money! Why haven't I done this sooner? Well, I guess it's taken being in a financial strain to finally get it into my brain that it's crucial! Time to whip open Microsoft Excel and go crazy! Woo!! Yes, I'm being sincerely genuine :-) Okay, so I have tried to save money in the past by buying only store brand items (except chips and ice cream have to be name brand...the taste difference is totally obvious). I've got to do more. Time to pick recipes that fit the pocket book and lighten-up on eating spaghetti more often. Yeah, artichoke dip is expensive, and I about passed-out at the price of capers...almost $3!!! Okay, I'm gonna start surfin' my favorite recipe sites. Allrecipes.com has over 600 crockpot recipes and it's that time of year when I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE smellin' something simmering all day long :-)
