Sorry, I’ve been absent. Real life stepped in and whisked me away. Ya know how it goes…you gotta pay the bills sometimes. Anyway, back to Food Waste Friday. I don’t have any pictures for you today and it’s not because we were wonderfully inventive with our leftovers. Nope. That’s not the reason. It was the [...]

I know I’ve said it a few times on this blog, but I try not to drive on Sundays. Well, thanks to the beautiful snow storm that rolled in Friday night and stayed through Saturday evening, yesterday was also a no-drive day for us. Since we were pretty much stuck in the house all day [...]

It’s Friday morning and time to be accountable for the food I’ve wasted for the week. (See The Frugal Girl’s blog to learn all about Food Waste Friday) Looking back, it’s been a pretty good week.

I was hoping to report no food waste for us this week since we were pretty much gone all week. But Gecko Boy didn’t finish up the turkey and dressing I had left him. So, I ended up throwing away the turkey legs and about a half a container of dressing. I finally found the [...]

I thought I was going to make it through the week with no waste. I had planned, shopped and cooked as simply and as efficiently as I could. Then I went to make potatoes with dinner on Thursday and found almost half of the spuds were moldy. So 1.5 pounds of red skinned potatoes went [...]

I tried to take a picture of my food waste for this week. Correction. I took a photo of my food waste. But the cable to connect my camera to my computer has mysteriously vanished. So, for my first week of participating in Food Waste Friday I have no picture to show. However, what I [...]
