We water plants and container garden with veggie water, but also with the bathwater too...I had an idea about your pot pies - start saving the tins from the pies you buy in order to use them for the pies you make (then you don't have to purchase the tins!). I also reuse them to give little pies as gifts and then I don't have to expect my pie plate back! - all the best, teresateresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18017476132278151699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-72117560589772650432012-04-29T19:03:23.920-04:002012-04-29T19:03:23.920-04:00Miss Terri:

You don't know me as I've never commented on any of your posts, though, I've been following you since your Penny Ann Poundwise blog, which I loved and I'm so glad you've kept a post about your thrift/frugalness! Anyway, I know this is a bit out of left field, but I was going through my bins of books and I came across a book that might be your cup of tea. The title is Jenny Walton's Packing for a Woman's Journey by Nancy Lindemeyer (editor-in-chief of Victoria Magazine). Have you read it? If not, would you be interested in reading it? I'd love to pass it on to you. You can reach me at kim . schade @ gmail . com (spaces taken out of course) if you wish.<br /><br />Thank you for taking the time to write! I enjoy your posts very much and as look forward to seeing you pop up in my Google Reader! :)Kim Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-52357216008243585652012-04-28T07:15:15.354-04:002012-04-28T07:15:15.354-04:00I feel so wasteful when I read your blog.

I bought four and one will be used on my desk for pens and the others I will use for holding plastic cutlery separately when eating outdoors. Not to play "devil's advocate" or anything :)<br /><br />HannahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-40443184044425712992012-04-27T09:08:24.689-04:002012-04-27T09:08:24.689-04:00Love the picture. from your porch?

My violets are just starting to bloom to. Of course, I did finally remember to feed them a couple of weeks ago, so sure that has something to do with it. Let them have a vacation and then decided it was time for them to get back to work again. Enjoyed your post. I too am trying to get my freezer down to bare bottom and then perhaps get a new one. I am sure it costs more in electric in the summer than it is worth, but it is in the garage so in the winter it hardly runs so I hope it balances out.
