Food Waste Friday--March 23, 2012

It's time for Food Waste Friday, when the Frugalgirl encourages us to post pictures from the previous week of wasted food from our household. This accountability hopefully will help us to be more careful with our food and maybe save some money. 





Here it goes for this week.
 
 
 
 
We had no waste this week, so we celebrated by having green eggs and ham (and brown and white eggs too) for breakfast. We're lucky that we have a friend that sometimes gives us eggs and she always includes a green one in the bunch.

    I had a hard time getting my daughter to sit through Green Eggs and Ham, but she's young yet. Congrats on no waste!

      The book is really designed for young readers with all of its repetition and rhyming words. She'll get there.

    I'm sure that you're doing better than you think. I've learned over time that the biggest help is not buying too much. We also make more of an effort to find the leftovers hiding in the back of the fridge than before. We don't waste that much, but we eat out a lot more than is healthy for us. We're doing better, but still have a ways to go in this area.

      Thanks for pointing me to this blog. Can't wait to explore it and share it with the other people who work at the library with me.

      The eggs were fresh and quite tasty. Local fresh eggs really makes a difference.

    Good job on no waste. I've been finding that if I keep leftovers all on the same shelf, the easiest, most accessible shelf, that I'm slowly getting better at using them up and not losing them in the fridge. I'll get to no waste eventually...maybe next week *fingers crossed*

      That's an interesting idea of keeping all of the leftovers on the same shelf. I may try it. It gives the rest of the family of an idea of where to start looking when they're hungry.

    That's awesome, a green egg, is it from a chicken? Looks big enough to be a duck or goose!

      Yes, its from a chicken but I couldn't tell you what kind. It was a very big--maybe an extra large size.
