Subject: RE: BS: Entering Poverty
This is a mighty interesting list. I wish I could tell you that it's a joke for us but sadly, our income has been cut by over 50%. In hopes of making this into an adventure instead of heartbreak we are focusing on what we CAN do to get through this.

At the moment my concern is in regards to making sure we will have enough money left for food after the utilities are paid. It seems that we will have some but not nearly what we usually will have. We are going to make do and be just fine.

Now-

Rice and Beans
Tuna Casserole
Turkey (luckily we have 3 large turkeys in our freezer and plan to make several meals out of these-including turkey soup-my favorite!)
Bread-I can make that
Eggs-we have chickens
Any other thoughts? I'd love to see some actual recipes here even if it's variations on how to use leftover turkey or 1001 ways to make potatoes.
