Re: Frugal living
Sandy, bear in mind with vegetarian meals that you will need to watch your iron intake. You can get iron from lentils, beans, spinach (don't eat too much of that though) etc but it is poor quality iron and not easily absorbed - make sure you get enough protein as well.Re: Frugal living
Yes I have got a slow cooker.Re: Frugal living
hi Ben varreyRe: Frugal living
Hi Sandy.. we took early retirement in our 50's and have become pretty good at 'frugal', but very good omnivorous living. We grow as many vegetables as possible (mainly things you can't get easily), forrage for wild fruit etc...Re: Frugal living
Re: Frugal living
I must admit since deciding to live more frugally it's become a hobby in itself. I feel quite proud of myself when I can save a bob or two here and there. Lots of people in the neighbourhood have started growing their own fruit and veg. my husband tried it once but the veg weren't very nice!
