just got back from a wonderful 3 week vacation. i realized on the trip that vacations are not a good time to try and be frugal. mind you, i didnt buy nearly as much as i had wanted to but we did spend quite a bit of money on things like eating out and hotels. some might say we splurged a bit when it came to that but hey, when in europe....right? needless to say, we had a great time so at least we enjoyed our selves at the expense of our bank accounts. reality hit once we got home but we've already made a plan on how to get back to where we were before out trip when it comes to savings so we should be ok in the long run.
i found a great and easy recipe for home made laundry detergent that i will be making as soon as we run out of the store bought stuff. i have about a 3/4 full bottle now, so in a few months we'll have to make some of this which is fine by me. we never threw out the old bottles for the detergents so they'll go to great use.
i have bought some tees before realizing that "oh yeah, i'm not supposed to buy new clothes" but it was in a foreing country so i figured, at least while away on vacation i can spend some money and then i'll return to my frugal ways after getting back.
anywho, i'm off to do some raw food recipe research. i'm looking for an organic recipe for muesli so i can have some yummy breakfasts....oh! before i forget, here is a recipe i've been using for breakfast that is super delicious and raw:
-rolled oats (not the quick stuff, but the regular ones!)
-apples
-cranberries
-almond slivers
i put the apples ina food processor and make them into like a paste; then i put the oats and the apples into a bowl (enough oats to be covered by the apples) and refrigirate overnight; i add the almond slivers and cranberries in the morning to taste.
super yummy and really easy...and i find it really filling. enjoy!
cheerio.
