On Monday I had an appointment with my retina specialist and received another injection in my eye. He told me the swelling was worse than it was six weeks ago and has me coming back in four weeks for a new medication injection in that eye.
Other than that I’ve spent this week at home, not spending any money. I did some steaming and processing for Bailey and did a lot of cleaning, but other than it’s been a quiet week here.
I cut open my favorite lemon toothpaste tube to get the last little bit out of the tube before tossing it.
Saving Money In My Frugal Kitchen
On Tuesday I deep cleaned my kitchen sink area scrubbing the top and bottom of my dish drainer, the counter top, behind the sink, the faucet and the wall behind the sink. I love how clean it looks after a thorough scrubbing.
I made several items that day also such as more jello fruit cups, two dozen boiled eggs, soup beans, cut up two melons, and made some banana pudding. Except for apple sauce, I was out of canned fruit for the jello cups, so I used fresh clementines instead.
Meals This Week
All meals are served with either salad or vegetables and may not always be listed here.
* If you see a dinner in bold print that means we had it more than once this week.
This is an easy recipe for banana cheesecake pudding using cottage cheese.
There are four tablespoons in the small box of the sugar free pudding mixes and this recipe calls for two, so you can either save the other half for another day or double the recipe.
There are twelve grams of protein in the cottage cheese, so much more protein than if you were to use milk in this recipe.
We’ve been watching Gilmore Girls lately as it’s been several years since we’ve watched it. We have all of the DVDs, traded for at McKay Used Books over the years. Based in the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut, it is home to Lorelei and Rory Gilmore, a mother daughter team figuring their way through life with a lot of witty banter thrown into the mix.
Thank you for dropping by my frugal blog, you are always welcome here.
We would love to hear all about your week in the comment section.
