A ten pound bag of russets arrrived from BJs today, should last at
least a month... tonight microwave baked spuds with pan fried pork
chops... watermelon for dessert... from a whole melon and very good.
We don't worrry about buying produce in large quantity. we buy carrots
in five pound bags, they cost 40% less per pound than 1 pound bags so
if the last start to go off they go out for the critters. last night
I tossed a pile of watermelon rinds out, this morning they were all
gone... some critters enjoyed them. Nothing edible ever goes in the
trash... even the few crumbs from a package of bread gets tossed
outside, it'll feed a nursing mouse.... often if there's a last slice
I'll butter it before tossing it out my window, mommy mouse will feed
her babies richer breast milk... I never stop thinking of better
mammary health.
