Weekend Things
>> Friday, February 15, 2013
Happy Friday, everyone! To keep the grocery savings theme going this week, I've decided to expand on our latest tips to 1.) Shop every other week and 2.) Make the most out of that trip. There are some great links below regarding food waste + how to avoid it below, along with other fun stuff.
// Breakfast for Dinner //
We do it once a week because it's easy + inexpensive -- how about you?
Landis' new book has some fresh ideas beyond our usual fried eggs + sourdough toast.
// Microwave-Free //
Our old clunker has been in the basement for 8 weeks.
Don't even miss it. Anyone else sans this "essential" appliance?
// Hot Mess Grilled Cheese //
A sandwich we could become obsessed with.
Pepper jack, onion rings & jalapenos.
// Sourdough Saga //
My sourdough starter ate itself! I had only waited 7 days to feed it.
Will have to start the process all over again. Boo.
// Kettlebells Workouts //
I did this killer thing the other day. My butt still hurts.
Ran 2.5 miles to gym, 25-min kettlebell workout, 2.5 miles back.
// What We've Watched //
Bag It (interesting eco-documentary); The Perks of Being a Wallflower (LOVED it);
Pitch Perfect (mindless fun); Flight (honestly never want to fly again).
// Reduce Food Waste //
And other tips from the book Unclutter Your Life in One Week
Pretty sure I'm getting a (digital) copy with my V-day gift-card.
"40 percent of the food that’s grown and sold in the United States is wasted."
Here's some tips for how to "get smarter about how you shop."
// Soap Opera //
We've been buying Dr. Bronner Castile soap for years.
Love it for camping, but started using it everyday to simplify our bath routine.
// 10 Easy Vegetarian Meals //
That your tots + kids will love.
(And you probably will, too.)
