Looking things up

Well I had to stop looking at the computer for awhile around here to say the least.  I did get something done in the house here and it was not much at all since I had a nap for the afternoon.  While I was looking things up for recipies here that are on the cheap of course.  I know I do not have much money at this point in time at all and I do not mind it at all for the place since I have been broker than what I am now.  With that being said I am doing something about it at all costs here in the household.  Alot of it is to cut back even more in alot of places in the household here.  I have came to the point to where I just do not like to go into the stores anymore anyway.  I can not stress enough around here is that I will keep flour, rice, pasta, and onions here in the household.  I may as well cook since I really do not like to go out to eat anymore.  What really gets to me about some things is that I know why things go up at the stores in the area and some folks holler about going in and the prices are up.  This is why I do some of the things that I do like made from scratch pancakes, waffles, and many other things for my household instead of getting the packaged stuff from the store.  My Husband does not mind when I start cooking around the household also.  I really started cooking from scratch around here when I had lost my job the last go around and I found out that it is cheaper than getting all of the packaged stuff.  When my Husband ralized that in what I was doing he agreed to let me go for acouple of months to see what I could pull off for the household.  It stuck and I have never looked back on alot of it.  Just like when I get the salt pork for the household here.  I do not make it that often and when I do it turns out pretty good either way I go.  As I have said before also I have the menu planner for all of the meals in the household.  Normally during the week I do not have to cook that often only because I am the only one here in the house and I am happy with a can of soup for dinner so I worry more about the weekends around here when my Husband is home.  It seems to work out better that way for the household at this point.
