Family Balance Sheet
DECEMBER 14, 2018
I cut them both up and served as a side for 3 nights of dinners and 3 school lunches for each daughter. My family was not thrilled, but we need to reduce our food waste. Did you know you can save hundreds of dollars by reducing your food waste?!?! I also made a large garden salad to serve for 3 dinners this week.

My daughter lives in California and we talk regularly. Searching for information on food waste led me here. I’m a 53-year-old mother of 2 (grown) and grandmother of 4. I’ve been divorced (unmarried) for 15 years. Wow, time flies. My ex-husband and I have an amicable relationship. How long reading the FG?

Saving Everyday

Consistently using things you already have not only saves money but also prevents food waste. Throwing food away is throwing money away ! Eating up those leftovers prevents food waste, period! My daughter and I share food all the time. Have a plan. Meal planning is not for me. Repurpose leftovers.

For example, Sarah from down the street babysits my daughter’s kids on some evenings so my husband and I can have a date night, with the understanding that I will do the same for her and her husband at some point in the future. Minimizing food waste also helps you save money. We still have versions of this today.

And I am more conscious of eating leftovers and avoiding food waste. I was baking some brownies for a friend and remembered that her daughter was vegan, so I wanted to adapt my sugar free recipe to use flax eggs instead. I’d like to grow our own catnip for Mr. Clark!
