A full fridge tends to encourage food waste because things get lost. I prepped food before clinical yesterday This semester, most of my clinicals end at 8:30 pm, so I’m gonna get lots of practice at packing dinners! And I left the rest at home for Zoe to eat after she got off from work last night.

I’m wondering, though, about using an iron on patch instead and still sew a whip stitch all around it. I’ve used the iron on patches before, and don’t think I was super impressed, but I probably didn’t do the whip stitch either. I don’t know how to use a sewing machine so hand sewing it is. Your thoughts?

Did you know you can save hundreds of dollars by reducing your food waste?!?! I discovered this hack on Pinterest and it really does work.

My degree is in mechanical engineering, but I’m just starting a transition to nursing – before I got pregnant with my son, I was working as a nursing assistant while my husband finished grad school, and planning to go on to nursing school. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love.
