It's not much, but it got me going anyway. If I do this for too many weeks, I'm going to need to make more room though. I do think it's important to have extras in the house that I have purchased on sale with coupons rather than being forced to the store because I ran out of an item I needed. If I could get a 3 month supply of the basics, I think I would feel like I've done well. And I'm not giving up on the freezer idea but the cost of one is stopping me right now. So, here's to 2009 and giving this a try!Your Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282985830898327093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4383015803594888116.post-40398580143266395632009-01-11T22:19:00.000-05:002009-01-11T22:19:00.000-05:00Hi Kristen,By the way, I like the name of your blo...Hi Kristen,<BR/><BR/>By the way, I like the name of your blog.. "Working moms can blog too!" <BR/><BR/>I don't exactly know where to start. Ok... maybe I do. I am going to start on restocking my pantry with canned goods, fruits, vegtables.. sauces... and then I will look at my pasta supply as well as my rice supply. After that....

I've been talking about an extra freezer for a while but my dilema is whether to buy new and get a decent one, which means spending money, or do I look on craiglist? And I also need more space for the non-perishables, because my pantry is already full. Where are you planning to start? Freezer, non-perishables, trip to Hawaii first to think it over... :-)Your Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282985830898327093noreply@blogger.com
