Fall 2019- Our Rich Backyard Life

Our Rich Backyard Life
Slowing down and taking the time to enjoy our surroundings is essential to
Living the Sweet Life On A Budget.  Whether it is enjoying nature or the beauty
of city architecture, taking time to stop and appreciate beauty wherever you
find it is important.   Our Rich Backyard Life looks at the beauty that is
surrounding us, whether it is animals, flowers, buildings, locations, or anything
else that we can appreciate in our daily travels.  
The weather has started to turn crisp, the leaves are turning and pumpkins are
all over the stores.    Fall is in the air and I am looking forward to pumpkin
dishes, hayrides, corn mazes, apple cider and Thanksgiving.  
Our trees are turning and the grasses are starting to turn for the fall season.  
Enjoy the pictures.

These bears come out each year.  
I was fortunate to get them from my mother in law.

Fall is so beautiful.  
I enjoy drinking my coffee at the table to taking in the view.

  NOTE-  1- Click on the picture and get a link to a post sharing the recipe.  2- Although all prices were correct at the time of the blog postings, the current cost of preparation of these dishes may be higher due to inflation and/or location.      March USDA Thrifty Food Plan ccording to this plan our family would have a budget of $186.20 per week.  Given our health concerns, we struggle to maintain this budget, but I am going to try to make this happen.    Cost Saving Tip of the Week: Check your sale flyers for loss leaders.   Each week grocery stores advertise specific products at a great price to get you in the store.   Recently, I have noticed a very specific time frame for getting these deals.   Good luck and happy hunting.   Here is what we did this week to make our week easier:   Refrigerator Clean Out Pre-cut all vegetables for the week Pulled older items to the front for easier consumption C...

Since March has 4 weeks, our monthly budget is $757.20.   We elevate our dining experiences by including fresh fruits, vegetables, and higher-quality meats.  Since we have health concerns and are active individuals, we limit our processed food choices.    Grocery Shopping Tip:     Utilize your grocery store’s loyalty program.
