[SimplifyMe] Re: Questions for the group :-)

 

Hi:
I'm not sure I ever posted in this group. Every time I look at a digest, it's been a bunch of recipes that we can't use.
Would love to see more diversity.

I am a "super couponer". I think that's the latest lingo. Level below Extreme, i.e: never pay $ for drugstore items, get multiple papers, read couponing forum. Our grocery stores don't double coupons so I have to pay something. Glad we have Sprouts.

Garden-I do it for fresh food, not into ornamentals. Almost feel it's moral obligation because we CAN grow so much here (Bay Area). Have several fruit trees. Dehydrate apricots. the other fruit requires too much sugar. Tried canning once & stressed out over the sterility requirements. Afraid the end result would kill someone. Would be interested in learning more from seasoned canners.

I re-use whenever I can come up with ideas, and having a stockpile goes with coupon-ing. I also end up with a lot of stuff I cannot donate or Freecyle, like diabetes meters & plug in things for air fresheners. having a place to ask about alternative uses would be great. Can't bear to just add to landfill.
Am craft-challenged. Have good ideas, but they never come out like they do in my head. I can tell someone else and what they make will be cute.

God bless-franceska
