Left Overs

I decided to clean out my fridge today. I was a bit scared at first for I have super smell and knew something would be sending me to the toilet or even the sink to toss my cookies. I must say I got lucky. Nothing had gone bad yet and with a stick of gum in my mouth i held down them cookies. I did however get bothered by the amount of left overs i tossed into the trash. I was a bit ashamed the more i thought about it. You see it wasn't very long ago that I was having to budget my grocery bill. I had to make sure I had enough food for me and my girls. Nothing went to waste. I will say that i did fairly well. With my income i kept a 2 bedroom house, had my bills paid and food on the table. We were comfortable but cautious. When Karl moved in my budgeting days came to a halt. I know longer have to worry about what i am spending. Not to say I go crazy but I'm able to buy more groceries and not worry when extra items get thrown in the cart. With that being said i find myself buying more roasts and whole chickens and these are creating the left overs. They normally get tossed in the fridge and most of the time not touched until it goes to the trash. Well today i decided that all my left over meat shall make itself back to the freezer instead. That way i can save it till it can be used again. Jessica is my inspiration for this. I read a blog awhile back about her left over pot roast creating an amazing stew when she never anticipated on using it in the first place. Just sorta stared her down in the fridge and said hey throw me in that stew. So I decided I'm gonna save my left over roasts both pork and beef and that chicken. I might make a stew or even make some enchiladas. Yep another inspiration from Jessica. I figure this is a way to make sure all the food in the house is being eaten and not wasted. Just making a simple adjustment.

On a side note, I found the disc to rock band that i thought my brother had lost. So looks like my rock band will be up and going soon. I just have to pull it all outta the box and set it back up again. YAY!
