Someone linked to you and am so glad that they did. Being a total frugal gal myself, I am loving my browse, and will back to join your blogroll. :) I have seen your cute buttons, but never clicked on.

Not tossing it. Our lunch Mon-Fri is always leftovers from dinners. And we have dab dinner night too, which is a dab of this and a dab of that in leftovers. I also have a stew pot in the freezer. You can add your bits of starches, meats and veggies nightly til it is full. Then thaw, add broth and heat. Instant stew with no trouble at all. Same with fruits if you want to use them for smoothies later. The old tea or coffee from the pot helps water plants. They love it. And the grounds are good for the flower beds as you well know. If you get a chance come visit and see how me and my neighbor (fellow blogger Nessa) are combining dinners and making a killing on the savings. So far we are at .44 per serving per person.
