I have found that the best way to make sure we use leftovers is to only cook every other day and eat leftovers on the days that I don't cook. <BR/><BR/>The kids sometimes whine about the repetition (although I do try to change enough in the leftover meal that it's kinda new), but we retort with all kinds of money and saving and using instead of throwing talk that pretty much puts an end to the complaining.Vered https://www.blogger.com/profile/09453358346751699999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-82000216835294435532008-09-04T16:38:00.000-04:002008-09-04T16:38:00.000-04:00I'm laughing so hard right now . . .

You don't have to maintain 4 gallons of milk, an endless supply of juice, soda and Kool-aid, or 3 pound blocks of American cheese, or separate bottles of everybody's favorite salad dressing (6 bottles' worth in my refrigerator!)just to get by. Nor do you need two pounds of lunch meat or bacon each week, and the cupboard looks pretty bare without 2 3-pound jars of peanut butter (one creamy, one crunchy)in it.
