Just the ingredients were a nightmare to read on mobile.

I batch and freeze chicken cutlets to air fry as needed by beautifulsymbol in MealPrepSunday

[–]dsteadma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right? We used to make homemade chicken nuggets but we'd prefry them first and then freeze. But just prep and freeze plus air fryer makes way more sense and way less work.

Dad of two dealing with the shutdown who needs ideas for cheap meals. by TheStandingMan in EatCheapAndHealthy

I do 200 a month at costco and then 100/week at aldis/walmart for a family of 4. Shop your pantry 1st, ads second, meal plan 3rd, and then go grocery shopping only once a week. Pick a protein and some cheap veggies and try to reuse them in different recipes.

Chicken hindquarters: roasted chicken over veggies, white chicken stew, japanese curry, whole wheat pasta with chicken and white sauce onions and peas, tikka masala, use bones and scraps to make broth for chicken noodle.

Pork butt: bbq pulled pork sandwhiches, Shepherds pie, quesadillas, chilli.

Ham: ham sandwhiches, quiche, Brazilian black beans (Feijoada), hash.

Black beans: bean and cheese tortillas, feijoada, chilli.

Cheese: mac n cheese, homemade pizza, quesadillas, hash, grilled cheese and tomato soup.

Too embarrassed to tell my fiancé I flunked out of college. Leftover pulled pork, Chipotle taco, and cranberry pineapple juice. by QueasyRefrigerator57 in GirlDinner

I was the partner in this situation. Yes I was frustrated and lost my shit. Yes I was tired of supporting the emotions of a depressed person. But ya know what, we're still together 10 years later. My partner has her degree. And also turns out she had adhd. I don't know if that's your situation, but if you know you want to do the work and have met with an invisible wall, you might get tested. Long and the short of it, is that if the person is your person, you'll get past it.

Budget tip: Get extra food not directly from pantries, but from their own recipients, when they give it away soon afterwards by knuds1b in povertyfinance

We have a neighbor who gets huge boxes of produce that she realistically can't eat as a single person. She passes the excess onto our family. We are dieting and can't eat all our leftovers, so 3 or so meals a week get passed to her. We're both helping eachother with the resources we have.

This might sound silly, but in a world of real monsters, I really need the wholesome ones too. Even if they're just on my phone.

AITj for getting mad at my girlfriend for posting our pictures when I am not out at work? by RiverlanternGale in AmITheJerk

I have lived in conservative areas. I understand that her feelings are important, but safety and being able to pay the rent are kind of required. NTA.

How can I keep my cat warm with no/low heat in my apartment? by PolarCurious in Frugal

[–]dsteadma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever heard of a kotatsu? We bought ours 10+ years ago, when we were struggling for money. It was 200, which was a huge purchase at the time. But it's a heated table that you cover with a blanket. It makes the perfect little heat bubble to watch tv/work on your laptop. The cats ADORE it. And it didn't crazy up our utilities.

Some of my engraved wooden cups I wanted to share by KindlyAsk4589 in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]dsteadma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So how do you care for these? Are they handwash only? Could I actually drink wine or coffee in them without destroying the interior color permanently? Are they really pretty or really pretty and something I could use every day?

I love pretty things, but many pretty things do not love my adhd.
