But that doesn't mean I m gonna make my own pasts whan I have 12 boxes downstairs. :) I am just staying away from boxed foods. That is very hard, but it is so rewarding when my kids actually like something even after they find out that I made it from scratch. :) Now if only they would like the bread I make........Jen@Scrapingirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08280261043942452491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-74596836927956781802010-05-05T13:25:40.511-04:002010-05-05T13:25:40.511-04:00I feel pretty much the same way, too.

It's one cook's comparison of making or buying several different items such as bagels and cream cheese. http://www.slate.com/id/2216611<br /><br />As for your tutorials, I've loved all the goodies I tried. In fact, one relative who is particularly hard to please told me your fruit salsa was the best thing I've ever made.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877230464280349405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7863110865991625393.post-52084720640519200672010-05-05T08:54:48.720-04:002010-05-05T08:54:48.720-04:00I LOVE your three categories...

I like knowing what goes into my families food and the extra savings. I've put it into a few different categories. When I found out how quick and easy some "scratch" items are, like pancake mix, pizza dough and bread I quickly realized there is no way I'd pay for store bought again. Then there is the tastes way better, and will try to make if I have the time category, like bagels and jam. The final category for me is the thats way too much work for the little price difference, for me thats pie crust. I am terrible at making them, and they seem to take a lot of effort.Coleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04114006176850770987noreply@blogger.com
