Today, February 11, I have had my 64-ounces! How about you?

Hey strangers. Just wanted to tell you that I have not forgotten you. Hugs!

I have graduated from preparing smoothies to preparing milkshakes and then tomorrow? Preparing slushies! I cannot wait! The flavors are endless! Do you prepare slushies, smoothies or milkshakes? What is your favorite?

Today was a very frugal day! The cafe where I used to work, gave my roommate and myself 8 Angus burgers! We split the burgers 4 a piece. Then, there are people that we call the "bread people" that bring we roommates day-old bread every month. I started a loaf of Sara Lee 100% whole wheat bread and placed the rest of the…

I am just plain tired. My days and nights are consumed by writing. The pay stinks. How are you?

Hello strangers! I played bingo! Instead of playing for money, we play for prizes. Do you know how individual 1-ounce bags of chips have 150 calories? I won a huge bag of veggie chips containing a bunch of small 1-once individual bags of veggie chips. Such individual 1-ounce bags only contain 70 calories. Good to have for…

I thought that I would share with you a few ways that I tolerate plain water! I have a 20 ounce water bottle that I fill up atleast twice a day. I like to use Pure Kick blood orange Energy zero sugar drink mix in my water. I buy boxes from the dollar store for less than $2.00 a box. Very delicious! Quenches the thirst! 10…

Hello there mocktail people! Sorry so late. I have been working hard to earn pennies. Recently I created a cookbook review about Maxwell House coffee! Every recipe, for baked goods recipes and drink recipes, calls for Maxwell House coffee! I would discuss every drink, but I would take forever! So, I am displaying the…

I am at a friend's place for the holiday. I brought lunch meat and buns and drinks for the holiday. Then when the roommates return I am going to prepare lasagna. I am not traditional. Have a happy turkey day!

Ways to get that Arnold Palmer without the expensive name! 1. Buy black tea bags and brew a pitcher of iced tea. Mix true lemon water enhancer in each glass. 2. Buy black tea bags and brew a pitcher of iced tea. In each glass, squirt some squeezable bottle of lemon juice. 3. Buy a crate of bottled water. Buy Wyler's Light…

Hello... How are all of you this evening? I hope good! Myself? I am going to start creating scrap fabric wreaths for Christmas! An example below: navy blue and white (my photography is not the best) What do you think?

Recently, we roommates went to the city to Long John Silvers. We save some money each month so that we can treat ourselves every-so-often. We bought a $20.00 meal with 6 pieces of fish, 6 pieces of chicken, 20 hush puppies and corn. A very frugal meal for a restaurant!

I prepared yet another batch of Spaghetti Salad! A very frugal meal! Simply, a pound of spaghetti, vegetables and Italian dressing. I had alot of Spaghetti Salad for lunch today. For dinner, a roommate prepared some mac and cheese. It was a pasta day! I have been drinking Arnold Palmers all day to quench my thirst. Now, I…

Hey strangers! I started a new opportunity at the end of June and have been quite productive. I can work from home. However, I do not get lazy. I began a new sandwich obsession! Black beans and mayonnaise on toast! The other day, I ate 2 1/2 pieces! Have a good evening and be good! Hugs!

Do you want a good drink but do not feel like preparing a drink? Simply buy sparkling water or seltzer. They are satisfying. Quenches your thirst and bubbly. I got sparkling water today from Walmart. (3) twelve packs for a total of $13.87 My favorite too! Pineapple Coconut! Tastes just like a cocktail.

I have been preparing Spaghetti Salad about once a week. I absolutely love it! I take a plate to my neighbor as she loves it too. Well, a few days ago, a roommate and I prepared Potato Chip cookies! My favorite! I gave the neighbor a couple. Guess what? The neighbor brought over day-old baked goods! She knows how I hate…

Hello! @CSEGUIN2 Maybe strive for next year's meetings leadership? Myself? The websites that I work on mostly drove me nuts. So, at the end of June, I got a new opportunity! I absolutely love it! Then, just last week, I was given a sub-section of the website for my cookbook reviews! I believe that everyone should learn how…

@CSEGUIN2 , I would have made the omelets myself but her's are better.

Hello! I just recently joined Speak Chat Forum! Such website is a paid-to-post forum. I thought that I would pass this opportunity on to you! https://speakchatforum.com/

I bought 3 bottles of Jordan's Skinny Syrups in the flavor of Pumpkin in the amount of $15.00 and a 2 bottles different flavor order in Vanilla for $15.00! Each order was $15.00. Both found on eBay. If you purchase on her website, we are talking expensive. You can create all kinds of mocktails with the syrups! Invest in a…

just my luck.. A roommate said that she would prepare egg omelets for dinner. A local farmer donates the eggs. Now, the roommate isn't. So, I had one piece of a peanut butter sandwich. I am going to have air fryer red potato wedges later on as a mini-meal. I spray a little olive oil on the potatoes.

Yesterday, after having my morning iced coffee (hint hint... no expensive drive-thru!), a friend dropped off some huge treats! A huge box of party mix, 2 huge boxes of salt and vinegar chips and a bag of assortment chips! These treats come in handy with sandwiches. One less thing to have on our grocery list for quite a…

Have you thought about writing an ebook? People have told me quite often to write an ebook. However, I am just too stubborn and do not think that I am good enough or talented enough. However, you might be a pro at it! Attached below tells you what to do! https://lulu.com/create/ebooks

Yesterday, I bought ingredients for my latest obsession of Arnold Palmers! A box of tea bags from Dollar Tree for $1.25. Then, 3 lemon juice bottles from the local grocery store for 99 cents each! As for food, I could kick myself! Earlier in the week, at the local grocery, Eckrich bologna packages were on sale for 2 for…

Hey ladies! I took a look at my body earlier after taking a shower and could not believe what I had seen. I know that I am obese, but not that obese. My plan? I have just got to exercise more. I mean really more. Kindly do not preach to me about what I need to do. Eat less. Exercise more. As I work as a chief writer from…

How are all of you? I hope good! How am I doing with the mocktail recipes? Today's Lemon & Lime Mocktail is frugal yet deliciously quenches the thirst. With today's hot weather, the drink can come in handy! What is your opinion?

I have a BBQ to go to next Monday night. I didn't sign up to take a little treat but guess what? I played bingo this past week and won a huge bag containing 18 mini bags of potato chips! Sour cream, regular and bbq flavor! Good? Bad?

My roommates are arguing and I am the one stuck in the middle of it. I had 3 cups this morning and have figured out that this should be my limit. I hope that you have a good day! :wink:
