Would love to put this in an barn wood frame.  It would look good in my bathroom.

Here is a great idea when you find a great deal on meat.

 

Pictured here is chicken that I got on sale for $1.49 per pound.

 

Divide it up into 2-pound freezer resealable plastic bags.

 

Label it with the contents, the date it was purchased and how many

 

pounds are in each bag. Freeze in your deep freeze. 

 

 

A good kitchen scale (about $30 for a good one) will help you weigh each package.

They are all individually packaged to provide enough for one meal!

 



 

 

 

Graduation is upon us.  Here is a great graduation card idea for you to make.  The inside mock diploma I made on my computer word processing program and printed it out in 5 x 8 inch size and cut out.  I used black card stock for the inside cover and the corners.  The graduation hat is a sticker.  The diploma cover is black shiny cardstock with a 2013 graduate sticker on the center front.  Just add some cash and you are set to go.

Strawberries are on sale this week at Smiths here in Utah for $0.99 per pound what a great deal.  I bought several pounds and plan on freezing them for later.
Directions:  Wash and hull strawberries.  Place on a cookie sheet in a level spot in your deep freeze or freezer until frozen.  Put in freezer safe reclosable plastic bags and label.  When strawberries are no longer in season you can make smoothies or jam for a very great price. 
Enjoy!
