2025 Frugal Friday File, March 21...

 

1.  I was able to make it through the week without needing a major grocery shop (I think Carey went to pick up few things he wanted).  Our batch of Dublin Coddle from Monday covered three meals, and we like it well  enough not to turn down its leftovers.

2.  The two monsteras that I got last spring are still thriving in our living room.  Jared was here recently.  We were watching something on tv that showed a monstera, and I said something about the one on tv looking artificial.  Jared gave me a funny look, that made me realize he thought mine were artificial.  He couldn't believe it when I said they are live plants.  I guess he hasn't noticed that they are bigger than they used to be, but still I was tickled that I have kept them so healthy and hardy for a year now.

3.  Glad that reading can be a frugal hobby.  I've been sticking with my resolve to fill the challenge prompts with books already owned by me or free.

4.  I have not shelled out for a new car...yet.

5.  FRUGAL FAIL!  I caved to the lure of Joanne Fabrics.  I just felt the longing for a last visit to say goodbye.  The prices were not great, but I knew I would cave to the beauty of the fabrics and not be able to leave it behind.  I did spend too much, but if I stretch it over a year, it only works out to $1 a day.  ;)

On the menu this week:

Saturday:  Saturday family supper at Kasey & Beau's

Sunday:  Breakfast for dinner

Monday:  Dublin Coddle & Irish Soda Bread

Tuesday:  leftovers

Wednesday:  takeout burgers

Thursday:  frozen pot pies

Friday:  Carey leftovers / I skipped supper
