About this ebook
MaryAnn Sadler
I have cooked for over fifty years. I experimented with foods while raising my children. When a dish I prepared satisfied my children’s taste buds, I kept it and started a recipe file. I now have enough that I have compiled them in a book. This book is dedicated to my children, Mariann, Kenny, Robert, and Sharity. I live at the same address I did while raising my family. I am now a widow, having lost my husband in 2003.

AS YOU ARE MEASURING, SUBSTITUTING ONE INGREDIENT FOR ANOTHER ONE, REMEMBER TO PICK UP A WEEKLY PAPER AND STRETCH YOUR DOLLARS BY CLIPPING COUPONS.
Coupons are money. Clip everything, whether you need it this week or next. Most have a month’s life to them. Watch the sale bills for what is on sale, match your coupons to the sale items. If you just go buy because you have a coupon for that item, you want benefit by it, unless it is something you need at the moment. Buy only what is on sale and only if you have a coupon. Most items, you can get almost free if you follow that rule.
If you get something free by using your coupon, go for it. If you don’t need the item, someone else might. Sock up with your sale items and use the products for baskets to welcome a new neighbor, new baby, a birthday gift, wedding shower, or make that extra Christmas basket, etc.
Couponing is time consuming and work, but it is fun to watch the savings pile up. Once a month, go through your coupons and pick out the expired ones. Yes, you will have expired ones, but think of that item on sale you could have gotten free, if only you had cut out that coupon you saw in last week’s paper. Yes, cut out everything.
Instead of buying expensive detergent to wash delicate fabrics, use a small amount of your favorite shampoo that contains conditioner. It works marvelously.
If on a day you feel crappy, you can either wait until something makes you feel better, or figure out what is making you that way and turn the day around. It will be more pleasant for you and everyone else you come in contact with.
In the summer you can grow all these vegetables that you wish to, but in the winter you can make sure you grow more vegetables when it becomes time to plant. What I do all winter is, when I peel potatoes or any other vegetable, I scatter the peelings on the spot where I make my garden. I do this from November through February. I also throw egg shells and coffee grounds (anything that doesn’t have salt) where I plan on making the garden. I quit after February as that is close to time for bugs to start and we don’t need that. In the spring, when you plow your garden, all those things you fed it with will be plowed in and that makes great fertilizer.
