I know we could never spend just $600 in a year, but I am guessing they do things that could help me save on our own grocery bill. Thank you!!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-76333049376628715692019-11-10T14:20:41.193-08:002019-11-10T14:20:41.193-08:00Lili, have you ever read the blog "Hope and T...Lili, have you ever read the blog "Hope and Thrift?" She (Jane) is not blogging regularly now but all the archives are still up. One of my favorites! Just recently, she popped in and said that they are on track to spend $600 on food this year! They keep a garden; too, and she does a ton of canning. It's she, her hubby and an adult son. She also has a lot of thrifty ideas for life in general. <br /><br />JoanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-13825804879154772892019-11-08T20:31:13.253-08:002019-11-08T20:31:13.253-08:00BBQ on the ribs sounds yummy, Kris.

Many recipes called for finishing them off under the broiler, which would have been good, but I didn't want to take the time or have the extra dishes to wash. No one seemed to mind.

If I had to guess, half of us consider bread to be the main course with a little soup for dipping, and the other half goes for the soup first. But you're right, homemade bread is so delicious and makes the house smell so good. Bread and soup is a great combo for cold weather.<br />I hope you have a wonderful weekend, Kris!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-12974525925468341652019-11-08T14:11:37.069-08:002019-11-08T14:11:37.069-08:00Hi Cheryl,

I don't think I use a lot of meat in it either, just a little for flavor and texture. <br />Have a great weekend, Cheryl.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-39882463000613914432019-11-08T14:07:44.961-08:002019-11-08T14:07:44.961-08:00Hi Live and Learn,

I know my family would really enjoy potatoes, sausage, and squash.<br />Your recipe for pumpkin-peanut butter soup is really a good one. It's not only delicious, but very simple, too. I need more recipes like that.<br />Snow already? Fall is passing so quickly.<br />Have a good weekend, Live and Learn.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-34518257936271399552019-11-08T13:01:31.733-08:002019-11-08T13:01:31.733-08:00I finally got around to making the pumpkin-peanut ...I finally got around to making the pumpkin-peanut butter soup a few weeks ago and I really liked it! <br /><br />Monday was a favorite meal for us--I splurged on pork ribs (50% off) and made them in the crockpot. I haven't made them before and was pleased with how tender they turned out. Right now I have bread in the oven and the smell is sooo homey and good. We are definitely in the middle of soup weather around here! I think my family considers bread to be the main dish and soup as the side dish. <br /><br />Happy weekend!Krisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-20516202967564979532019-11-08T06:23:38.005-08:002019-11-08T06:23:38.005-08:00Lili, wanted to let you know I have made your cabb...Lili, wanted to let you know I have made your cabbage patch soup twice. Once with ground meat and once with sausage. I don't use a lot of meat, just enough for husband to see some. It is delicious and so easy to make. Thanks for the recipe.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03532160415343676858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-83970644979524181862019-11-08T05:54:27.004-08:002019-11-08T05:54:27.004-08:00We haven't made the pumpkin-peanut butter soup...We haven't made the pumpkin-peanut butter soup for a long time. It's cold today and we may have snow soon, so it's the perfect weather for it. <br /><br />My favorite this week was fried potatoes, onions, sausage, butternut squash, and green beans. Not the most calorie friendly, but sooo good.<br /><br />Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.com
