If, in today's post, you find grammatical errors, stories with no conclusion, or other nonsensical ravings, please forgive yours truly. I. Am. Exhausted. I forsee a nap in my lunch-break future.

Since I am scarcely able to string together a coherent sentence, I will be brief. Beef and Broccoli = yuck. After running a slew of errands both on my lunch break ( I still squeezed in a walk later in the day!) and after work, by the time I got home I was tired and starving. Usually in that state I am able to wolf down large amounts of dinner without even tasting it, but the unsavoriness of the Beef and Broccoli trumped my tum. The flavors were weird, the meat was tough, and the broccoli was soggy- not a good combo. The Hubs and Wrench said it was fine (I was too tired to even remember to ask for their scores) and that they didn't mind it at all, but as for me, I will not be making it again.

Beef and Broccoli:
Me: 1.5
The Hubs: "tastes fine"
Wrench: "Its good"

As part of my debt-busting good idea, I'd like to share some ways in which I save money. Today's tip, FREECYCLE. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the concept of freecycling, it is based out of a website with local groups all over the country. You sign up (free!) with your local group and start the fun! You can post things that you don't want anymore (I'm talking anything- from an old lawn mower that may or may not work to your leftover coupons to the couch that you just replaced) and people come and get them. You can also post things you want or need. I have gotten many items from freecycle. For instance, last night I acquired a whole bag of jeans. I wear a really hard-to-find size (translation: expensive) and although these are much too short, I am going to cut them all down into capris for the summer, saving about $100 I had planned for just such an expense. So now I can use some of that money to replace other parts of my wardrobe that are nearing the end of their life-spans. Unless, of course, I can find those on freecycle too...
