Excellent post and ideas. I believe it comes down to how easy and readily available grab-and-go foods are. Not to mention, the convenience in a society that is always in a hurry. I cannot afford to eat like that, but I know plenty of people who say they cannot afford to eat right, but have a freezer full of microwave meals and a pantry full of junk food. I buy my vegetables locally from a store that sells locally grown produce. They also carry meat from a local farm. It does cost a bit more, but knowing I am eating real food without all the unnecessary ingredients is well worth it. I try to cut costs with gas and stay home more. I open my windows instead of running the air, and like you suggested, I use a cloth napkin for spills, etc., more than paper towels. The little things we do can make a big difference in the long run.
There are always ways to free up money to afford things that really matter... if we want to. Glad you hear you are looking for those in your life. Thanks for commenting! :)
Thanks Word Herder! Certainly not a world changing post, but just some tips I wanted to share with people. Food is expensive and we often forget there are ways to free up some funds to be able to *try* to afford it! lol.
I once heard someone talking about eating better and they said something to the effect of, "doing something is better than nothing." I agree! Thanks for reading my post Bandit. Good to see you. :)

Amen, Rob! I'm trying to eat better. I'm not perfect and probably never will be, but I'm working on it.

I read somewhere not too long ago that eggs can keep the dementia away. That's a bonus, because I love eggs!
Maybe that's my problem. I don't eat enough eggs. 😉😂
Bok! Eat more eggs, Bandit! BOK!!
😂🤣😂🤣 🐔
I think you're perfect. xo
I wish! 😂
