Recession Busters # 60: Food, Fun & Frugality

Recession Busters # 60: Food, Fun & Frugality

1. I watched Clara’s video for depression style pasta and peas. The recipe was rather freestyle:
Cut up one potato, and some onion, and sauté in pan with a little olive oil. Add a can of peas. Add enough water to cook pasta and bring to boil. Add pasta and then turn off heat under pan. Allow to sit at least ten minutes. Salt and pepper are added to taste, and if desired, can add a little tomato sauce. Yum!

2. Of course, recession news has been all over the media for months. Recession busters I have come across? Packaging home services, such as cable, telephone, and internet. Shopping around for the best electric rates.

3. I have practiced some money saving tips forever, such as grocery shopping with coupons and specials, buying store brands, etc. I have also been a Consumer Reports subscriber for years and it is a great source of information for shopping wisely.
