Family Balance Sheet

OCTOBER 19, 2011

I have a grandmother who would never dream of buying containers to store leftovers or food for the freezer. She has always reused food containers, such as glass pickle jars or plastic cool-whip and sherbert containers, so I am not quite sure how or why I got started buying plastic food storage containers. It seemed a bit wasteful.

Instead of using aluminum foil or plastic wrap to cover casseroles and leftovers, store the food in re-usable containers. I love my Pyrex Glass Storage Containers with the blue plastic lids. Re-use glass jars instead of buying plastic storage ware. I have 4 different sizes. I learned this one from my Nanny.

Institute a 'Raid the Fridge' Night One night a week, raid the fridge to get rid of leftovers. Set the leftovers up buffet style. Everyone's plate might look different, but you'll at least use up the leftovers and reduce the waste. Utilize the Freezer Freeze those leftovers. Stockpile in the freezer.

Plus, we require a lot less storage room for our wardrobe, which means when we get ready to buy a house, we won’t need huge walk-in closets. We’ve used this for about 6 weeks now, and we’ve been pleasantly surprised with how economical it is as well as how good it works. Make your own laundry soap. Conserve utilities.
