the thrifty
KITCHEN
It isn’t about how little you spend; it is about how little you throw away. That is the key to keeping our household food budget on track. We throw very little away. When celery goes limp or carrots dry out, we add them to the collection of chicken bones in the freezer to make stock. I haven’t purchased broth or stock in years. A little cream makes a whole new meal from left overs. Overly ripe fruits make fantastic preserves, coulees, granitas & trail mix. Stale bread makes great croutons. Don’t let throwing things away become the habit, recycle or re-use or re-invent it–even food. This next Call wants your insight on garbage re-use & reduction. Love this one…

CALL for ENTRIES:
Garbage
Today we swim in garbage. The world we live in is over populated, over polluted, over everything. How we deal with garbage needs a new approach, a new way of dealing with this overgrowing problem. Recycling is one of the possibilities. But how do we view garbage? How we use it, re-use it and what our personal relationship towards it is–those are the questions to be asked.
