Just because of the crisis, it doesn't mean we have to stop being frugal.
In an effort to minimize my trips out, I've started eating through some of the forgottens in my fridge.
Today, my friend and I baked this frozen apple pie (from last Thanksgiving) This is really just the tip of the forgotten food brigade. It'll just get funkier from here on out.
My inner frugalista loves how this is saving me money.
That actually looks quite tasty
Lol. It was ok I only ate two pieces.
Now, a pie I really like translates into 4 eaten pieces.
I am doing this as well until I went out and got my hair done.. first time in 5 years so I figure I’ve saved the money not going for so long I deserved a little splurging... 😊 I still have canned food from 2 years ago I’m using now.... not worried about running out of edibles...
Me really either. My friend ( and the 86 year old I care for) said that in St.. Petersburg, Russia (where she is from originally) all the buckwheat and onions are off the shelves, because people are hoarding them. (Russian comfort food!! )
You get onion to cry yourself to sleep!(Say with heavy russian accent)
I like that you get onion to cry yourself to sleep.... 😂
Looool this made me giggle ! Thanks
Great, Hope. 
my mrs will save a fortune as the kids cant do anything or go anywhere.
Well it's a little silver lining, but something.
Thanks for posting....went to the supermarket today for Apple pie and some custard ...came home with a tin of pineapple chunks and some gravy granules
Lol oh no! There should be a reality show now with cooks competing with these leftover products.
Pineapple chunks with a side of juis
There is. It's called "Chopped."
Oh dear. My supermarket actually had toilet rolls in! Ok no bread, frozens, or hand sanitizer but you can't have everything 😁
I panic bought mushrooms don’t really like them just saw a woman buy 2 lots so thought I definitely need some....ps glad you can take time on the loo in the morning....read a paper or something
Oh you stockpiler you! 😁 x
Panic buying what you don't particularly like -lol 😁
Fungus hoarder😊
Can have a mushroom soup for a starter ☝️😃
Yes you can... 2pkg worth... 😊
Let me know if the mushrooms helps your depression would ya? 😁🤞
Be careful - or there won’t be mush-room for anything else in your cupboards 🤣
Sorry - someone had to make the joke! Hehehe x
Haha 🤣
Mmm. Mmm. Pineapple, gravy and mushrooms.
And today I got 4 hot cross sticky buns ....did you score anything ?
Me? I haven't been in a store for a week. I'm afraid when I do go there will mothballs and black licorice left.
I had to go out today so stopped for petrol scored some salted caramel and chocolate sticky buns...😃...oh the joys
Yes. 10 more points.
Points make prizes
That sounds pretty good actually. Who did you have to knock down to get those?
😂
I'm working on being more frugal. Please offer any tips you can. I will start with some of the forgotten. I have two loaves of frozen bread dough in the freezer and as soon as I use up the bread we have they are first on the list. I also climbed behind the washer and dryer to see if the fallen bottles still have anything in them. Not much but it's a start.
Sure thing- who knows, we might stumble upon a new flavor combination or dish in our pursuits?
Haha be careful you don’t get stuck
Great idea. I will look into my frig and cabinets too. Thanks.
Just enjoyed laughing at all the comments and glad we're still trying to stay positive! 😉
Guys.. my ketchup has ran out... found a can of fizzy drink... it’s orange fanta... oranges are close to tomatoes 🍊🍅 do I dunk my fries in fanta?!!!!!! 🤭 just thought I’d share my thought process right now 😳🤯
ROFL!!! 😁😅😂
And some frozen corn
Great idea, Ladyandthepetdog! Love it! ❤💛💚
We might have a forgotten pantry item recipe competition if we get enough guinea pigs, er, contestants.
Lol, sounds like fun! 😀🤣👍
Is there still any pie left?? xx
Just a couple piece. Its a necessity right now-comfort food.
