Ah, so you DO buy stuff, lol.

I have not been to the grocery this month yet. Cat food/meds and TP are on subscription and come every 90 days, or thereabouts. I use a lot of baking soda but the...

for me that would be a BIG problem... no food for people or animals, no TP, no cleaners. . . I have stocked up but it will all have to be replentished at SOME point! We used to grow much of our...

I put new cheap insoles in my house-shoes. They are nice and comfy again, for a quarter (new in package from a garage sale several years ago). Keeping the thermostat down, even though it's COLD. ...

bae, so sorry. catherine, hope your brother is on the mend! our son was dignosed several weeks ago, as was the household he is in. He tells me he is [mostly] better. He can smell and taste some,...

thanks for the kitty update! they sound like tons of fun, and they are so lucky to have you in their lives (and you, them, of course!). I wish for all animals to find forever homes with people...

breakfast ice cream! everything bagel flavored. suprisingly delicious! :~)
(left overs from national ice-ream-for-breakfast day)

chicken in roasted red pepper cream sauce over black-bean and sesame fettuccini

We've never seen any reason to pay for Prime..... and for me, at least, it's way too much bother to order from multiple stores. And in using amazon, I'm supporting not JUST Bezos, but many small...

I knew I didn't mind being pretty isolated, and this year has confirmed that. I learned that I did not identify myself with my job as much as I thought I did - frankly, although I totally enjoyed my...

have gotten only one haircut in the past year - saving about $60.00. When my hair starts to drive me nuts, I whack at it with manicure scissors (so I can't cut off too much at a time and make holes...

One reason I dislike electronic controls on household machines (washer/dryer/dishwasher etc). Mechanical things are much easier to fix instead of replace. And around here, the small repair shops...

Red bag Aldi chicken (tastes like Chick-filet to me!) and roasted veggies

Just this week, I got a note from our trash people that they are now taking more plastics, including cottage cheese type tubs, along with the soda and milk jugs. We recycle at lot, but most of it's...

OMG! I can deal with Boston but I would NEVER drive in Paris, esp. on the Champs Elysees. I could barely stand to take a taxi there! I remember seeing cars fanning out at the circle - the roads...

It was different, at least in the country. I was born in 1956. My mom was a housewife but to say she didn't work would be untrue. We didn't have a farm, but lived on a corner of my grandparent's...

I have a 90s era crockpot. I don't like much crockpot food (tasty food in, bland mushy gunk out) and have mainly used it to keep food hot at pot-lucks. One of the handles broke years ago, and we...

Still have rabbit cages, chicken nest boxes, and related in the barn. Plenty of room for them there, and expensive to replace, should we decided to raise food animals again. It's not hard...

jeppy, fresh produce IS the most challenging thing about shopping infrequently. I shop about once a month for our major groceries. I usually make a mid-month stop at a Dollar General (on my way to...

pulled 4 mugs from the cupboard to donate. Not exactly a big space-saver, lol. We consolidated our tree ornaments, but didn't actually get rid of any, just packed them better, reducing the need for...

Yeah, auction attendance is way down here. But dumping stuff - this is what I can't bring myself to do. I try very hard to have less footprint, and I HATE sending things to the dump. We have trash...

Those were worthwhile returns, Tybee! I complained about some flashlight bulbs I bought on Amazon this week (two were burned out already, and one burned out very quickly) so I got my money back on...

I really struggle with motivation too, and more so now that I'm retired. And of course we've pretty much been always at home for the past year. I know that sounds strange, but I think it's because...

Keto-ish pancakes (DD and DH) w/left over batter from Sunday, 1 small pancake, egg scrambled w/cheese (me).
jeppy, avocado deviled eggs sound delish!!

Thinking of you rr - and hoping your day has improved. My SIL once cut herself with scissors. Twice. On the same day. I thought she should have had stitches, but we taped her up and she healed...

I buy a lot of stuff from Amazon now, and have seldom been disappointed. I do read the reviews, try to find source info, and check return policies. I've only gotten a few things that shipped from...
