Hi Shawn,


 RH> We aren't working (but for my sporadic sewing income), just using
 RH> Social Security plus Steve's military retirement/disability income. Not
 RH> hurting but cutting back somewhat on what we buy. The freezer is quite
 RH> full so we're trying to eat out of that as much as possible, still
 RH> buying fresh fruits & veggies, eggs, breads (until I can get back to
 RH> baking), almond milk, etc.

 SH> We're also trying to eat out of the freezer right now.  I have a bunch
 SH> of soups and stews that we need to get through, plus some roasts and
 SH> chickens we got on sale.  We don't need to buy any meat or frozen veg
 SH> for a a while.

Some of the meats in the freezer will probably get recycled into
stews, stir frys, soups, etc. I just need to sit down and plan meals out
a bit better. We bought a new freezer last fall--has 4 drawers plus an
open spot so we sorted stuff as we transferred things from the old
freezer. I also compiled an inventory sheet, something I used to do but
had let it slip some years ago. Now I know what's in the freezer and
basically where it is, just need to clean and sort fridge freezer now
(after I get more use of the hand).
