From this simple old lady: It's not about the stuff you have, it's about the stuff you're made of!

2. You know what I am doing?

Thinking of different ways to occupy myself. Cooking things I have not cooked for a long time.

Found a recipe on Google for biscuits for one or two. They were delicious. Had not baked buiscuits for a long time. Concentrated on Cakes,pies, desserts.

Made a spaghetti/ chicken, mushroom casserole. Basically, going simple. No need to go to a grocery every day for wants. I have a feeling this will change a lot of habits, waste,etc.

3. Agree with you on the waste

I've been thinking twice about what I throw away now. Use it up, wear it out, make do or do without.

4. Same here

Always had an overstocked pantry. Am now finding different ways to use things.

Heard on The Kitchen on Food Network. People are throwing away an awful lot of canned tuff because of that Sell by date. That does not mean it is not still good.It is, that is for stores.

6. Just made me Irish scones. Thank God I had all the ingredients! It is a good time to hone

those skills we haven't used for a time. I am one cheap old lady. I told husband my husband that we must eat all leftovers from meals. Waste not, want not.

I bought 5 Lbs of self rising flour a couple of weeks ago.

Hmm! Scones? Sounds good!
