I can never resist free food, especially when I know that if I don’t take it, it will go to waste, which just offends my sensibilities!
Just a bit further along our road there is a sweet chestnut tree at the bottom of someone’s...

Did you ever get a bonus, when going thru a fast food restaurant drive-thru and got a free burger or shake, for example?
I did twice, at MickeyD's.. 1st, a shake, and on a second visit, some fries.

It might get up to the mid-70s today (F, so around 24C), but it's currently grey and overcast, and I have 2 lbs of yellow split peas in the cabinet calling my name. Split pea soup for dinner tonight!
I just diced up a whole onion...

As many of you know, I often bring home items (groceries) from work that are being donated or discarded due to being near or past the package "sell-by" date, and I sometimes get free food from other locations as well. Sometimes...

It is the feast day of Jesus the Good Shepherd here. I am living for quite sometime but I did not know that. My village now has been more active and has more camaraderie than it used too. So now that it's the feast...

While I did pay for some groceries today, I did grab a few freebies from work: 2 pints of half & half, a bakery box of mini croissants, 3 packs of Applegate Farms turkey bacon, 2 small bottles of Naked Blue Machine juice smoothie,...

Hello, all! Today was my first day back to work for the year, and the culls fridge was quite full. There was a lot of oat milk yogurt (which I don't need) and lots of fancy cheeses that I didn't think we'd use up right now, but I...

I hope the picture loads with this post. I reduced the resolution, so hopefully that does the trick. I'm at work and only have my phone, so I can't reduce the picture size on my computer like I usually do.
Today I snagged a quart...

Look at what I got from the free area at work today! A package of these delicious apple cider muffins (I look forward to these showing up in the store every autumn -- so good warmed up with a little bit of butter) and a dozen...

Today's finds in the culls areas really made up for Friday's slim pickings. In the morning, I found a box of 8 croissants, a jug of cold brew coffee with oat milk, a strawberry drinkable yogurt, a tub of spinach dip, and a layer...

I didn't get a whole lot of freebies from work on Friday, but at least what I did find is useful for my household: a loaf of whole wheat bread and a package of good quality hot dogs!
The hot dogs are the reduced-fat variety,...

Here are some things that were saved from the landfill today!

Remember the days when Labor Day meant that workers had a day off to enjoy with their families, and it wasn't a day where the "essential workers" had to work because the privileged with a 3-day weekend wanted to go shopping? Yeah,...

It's always nice when things like hot dogs end up in the culls fridge, especially when I don't have any hot dogs left at home! I feel a little less guilty about giving this brand to the kids too, as it tends to have fewer "weird"...

I forgot and put away almost everything before remembering to take a picture, so at least you can have this picture of the coffee cake. By the way, this cake is absolutely delicious and moist. Don't let the "gluten-free" label...

One of the first things I do when I go on break at work is to check the culls areas in the back of the store and grab what I think my family can use. I check it again after I clock out at the end of my shift because often new...

The other day, Angel alerted me to people outside. When I looked, two guys appeared to be moving boxes.
I wondered if the people upstairs (who I've met and talked to a few times but we've never formally introduced ourselves)...
