It could have cost more...and the frugal part

the weed whacker I bought last night...29 dollars
the amusement/water park we took the kids too...7.75 a person
the dinner out last night...35.00
the lunch we had at the water park...21.00


But I used the weedwhacker this morning to cut the grass since we live in a house with a very small yard. I also have blueberry and raspberry bushes that gave us a whole plateful of fruit. We had french toast this morning with bread ends, two eggs, and reconstituted milk, enough oil to cook the french toast, sprinkled powdered sugar on it, and added our FREE fruit!!! We put the bushes in years ago, and bought them on clearance too.

We went to the water park and came home.

I'm making 36 meatballs. Part will be for our meal tonight, and what is left will be put into the freezer.
1 lb ground beef
2 eggs
1 cup of reconstituted milk
1 cup of seasoned breadcrumbs
worchestire sauce
a whole onion
two cloves of garlic

We are making party sauce to go with our meatballs. We will use the last bit of strawberry jelly and the last bits of BBQ sauce to cover the meatballs with. We have enough lettuce and tomato left for a small salad for the five of us.
