March Frugal Chatter - Spring is Coming

[Frugalbigmama]

The sausage sticks I bought yesterday on Flashfood came in handy this morning. (Reg $10 each on for .25 cents!!!) I sliced it up thinly and made DS 2 sandwiches with it.
Will do that every few days to use it up. ( I also used up the last 2 whole wheat hamburger buns) Love using stuff up and no waste. What a deal!!

I need to get sorted and organized this weekend for posting stuff for sale. I am WFH next week so its the perfect time for porch pick ups. If its nice and sunny I may put out my hanging racks so they can pick what they want and leave the money in the jar on my porch.

Good Afternoon Everyone,
I hear it is cold outside but I have not gone out today but the nice sunny day is making me feel better. There is something about spring, the warmer weather the sunshine really helps improve my mood.

An old old listing I had for an old set of dishes someone found and wants to take. Asked for a $5 discount from my posted price, honestly forgot I still had it posted but it will get one box out of my dining room so how could I say no.

Got a few small things done around the house and now on to age old question "What's for Dinner?" It is the never ending question. Thinking something with Rice, it has been awhile since we had Rice but we will see what I come up. I want something different.

What a busy but productive day! Woohoo I am ready for the weekend!
Heading home now, stopping at RCSS to pick up my Flashfood order. then home to whip up the coleslaw so it can sit in the fridge for a few hours (I will add onion for flavour!)
Will put away clean dishes and wash whatever is dirty to keep on top of it.
Then a shower and slap some make up on my face since I have been make up free all week

Have a fantastic evening and GO LEAFS GO

I enjoyed my day off. Went to Costco early and home in less than an hour, I picked up a rotisserie chicken for tonight’s dinner. Did some laundry and then picked my favourite work colleague up from the train station and we drove down to the lake and had lunch and a sunny but cold patio, then a long walk along the waterfront. I do love living 10 minutes from Lake Ontario. It was so nice to catch up.

Good Evening Everyone,
Got started on my work for the weekend, hoping with some good planning even though I have to work this weekend I can limit how much of my time it takes up. One part of my work for the weekend is out of my control, the biggest part, I need someone else to do there part before I can do my part. I was hoping they would do it tonight but haven't.

This weekend I need to do some serious meal prep. I need to find some recipes I can freeze that can and just pull from the freezer for lunches. We very rarely buy sandwich meat and rely strongly on leftovers but if we have a week where the leftovers are limited it makes lunch tough. I want to make some pizza pockets but was also thinking I might make other pockets since I use a bread dough to make my Pizza Pockets. Maybe Ham & Cheese or Roast Beef and Cheese. Maybe I will make some Bagel Bombs too, I could have those with some cut up veggies. A few ideas.

I also have some cleaning I want to get done this weekend, I still need to scrub down the floors on the main floor. I was hoping to get it done today but got pulled into a few "fires" at work I needed to deal with. As well I want to try some online hacks I found for washing fake plants, we have a lot of floral arrangements and fake plants we do not use as they are coated in dust from storage and look gross so I want to see if any of the hacks I found work.

Have a great night everyone

Can a spritz of Febreze solve this problem without damaging the puzzle?

Febreze only masks the smell but doesn't eliminate it, in spite of what they claim on TV.

I bought a cute little water fountain for my cats - used but in great condition for $10 and it came with an extra filter. The lady was selling it, as her cat wasn't interested and it looks like mine aren't either :-(

If you like the breakfast hot pockets & have eggs to spare, home made ones are easy. I haven't made them for a few years but it's basically a scoop of cooked scrambled eggs with a bit of meat/cheese/veg wrapped in the dough, baked, frozen & reheated like the commercial ones. Now that I think of it, it was easier to make a sort of frittata with all the goodies mixed in, then cut into small blocks to wrap the dough around. Less messy & more even results. Cheese was better added when wrapping too, it made a nice gooeyness when reheated to eat.

Good Morning Everyone,
Work stuff is rolling and getting done, fingers crossed it won't take me all weekend to get it done.

Now it is time to move into the kitchen and get some stuff done. I have a few things planned, not as much as I had hoped. I was so tired last night everything on Pinterest just looked like too much work. So I will knock out the list I have and then work from there.

Then I will need to knock out some cleaning.

Hoping I can get a lot done today and maybe tomorrow I can rest but we will see. I do have a lot I want to get done. Good news is come the end of the week I was able to shorten my hours and find some balance between working , home and me time so that makes me happy plus I do not feel exhausted today.

Time to get at it, so much to get done

Have a wonderful day everyone.
