I'm in. Used the vegetable steamer to steam brussel spouts in the steamer part and boil a sweet potato in the boiling water below. No waste, frugal.

I'm in. During all the past years, I didn't realize that I was being "frugal". I've just been doing what my mother did!!! She never wasted anything - great example for my sister and me!!! Our daughters are following my example - really great!!!

Result re the turkey, all that remained was the gobble.

Gammon is still around but its still being enjoyed.

Making hot chocolate with the mini eggs the DGKS didn't make off with. Very nice too.

DH made us an indoor compost bin ( mini sized ) which means we are reminded not to bin anything that can actually be composted. It works, rubbish much reduced.

Brought back felt scraps from craft cub to make "features" for felt critters. there isn't time during class to make these and its no trouble to sit and make eyes, cute smileys, scary teeth, aliens antenna etc. Using it all up !
