Remember The Leftovers Instead Of The Drive Thru

Yes and the leftovers are often better for you anyway ! as well as enjoying the satisfaction that you have not supported the transnational corps you may keep down your own intake of trans fats.

It irritates me to no end when we both arrive home exhausted and get take out for dinner, then realize that there were lots of leftovers that we'd have enjoyed more (and saved money on) instead of buying a lousy meal. Thanks for reminding us, or at least me, to make do.

This is advice I should take....not only do I spend more money than I have to with stopping for fast food but my triglycerides are up so I'm trying to lay off the greasy foods! Not only do we usually have some sort of leftover in the frig but I always have sandwich fixings and the like to make a fast lunch. I especially love tuna salad and that always beats the deep fried foods from the drive thru!

I try to remember to stick a granola bar in my purse if I'll be out for a while--then I can munch on that instead of going through the drive through. Or I stop by the grocery store and buy snacks we will eat anyway instead of going through the drive through.

AMEN!! And a person can save more money in the kitchen than most any other area, just by doing exactly that: SAVE AND EAT WHATEVER YOU HAVE !!
One day very soon I believe we will be grateful for
most ANYTHING, because of the way things are
happening! I've even prepared myself to eat Dandelion greens, ordinary yellow-blooming Clover,
wild Wood Violets, Pansy flower petals, Apple tree leaves, certain grasses, Honeysuckle blossoms and I'm studying other edibles in the yard, (since MANY are poisonous) JUST IN CASE. God bless and help us all. : )
