Homecoming

Returning late last night from a family vacation (read: decidedly un-thrifty family vacation) and having spent five hot nights in a smallish hotel room, the house seemed huuuuge and remarkably tidy.

Fast forward to next morning and chaos reigns once again.

However, it was a good feeling while it lasted! Ultimate blessing - a nice roof over our heads. It's true that the best things in life are free (or in this case, mortgaged).

So I guess to make up for the flippant holiday spending I ought to think of thrifty ways for the rest of September.

Idea one - use all cupboard food before buying any more groceries! Which will be an interesting experience given that I am NOT a cook. Good thing for sites like Supercook - just enter the ingredients you have into the box on the left and, voila, check out the recipes list on the right. Supereasy, superfun, superchef me!!!
