My mom had 6 kids and 2 foster children to feed. Food was always less expensive when you made it yourself. And it tasted better too. And no doubt healthier.

There are still 4 more dinners to make this month, and there's nothing left in the freezer except for processed stuff, and a couple of bags of frozen veggies.

He's diabetic and we both needs to loose a little weight. Somehow that over-sized bag of BBQ chicken wings doesn't seem to be a wise choice.
