I didn't really think about cooking them both at the same time to save time and energy. <br /><br />I always make stock from the chicken bones. I save vegetable trimmings (carrot peels, onion skins, etc. ) for flavoring the stock instead of "wasting" the fresh veggies.Amy @ Gospel Homemakinghttp://gospelhomemaking.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689362661450736563.post-32280431009870034882011-05-17T21:03:25.946-05:002011-05-17T21:03:25.946-05:00great post something that at time swe had to learn...great post something that at time swe had to learn the hard way and now we are able to pass this to our children thanks for sharing come see me at http://shopannies.blogspot.comannies homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14583996787641143024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689362661450736563.post-1806204189483027242011-05-16T13:32:27.781-05:002011-05-16T13:32:27.781-05:00Very well said.

This month I am actually working on a "Power Savings Month" in which I am doing without quite a bit and making my leftovers work for me. I shop once a month and wind up with a lot of odds and ends that I need to use up, so even though we may run out of ketchup or not have any brown sugar left, we are doing without as much as possible this month and getting creative (in a healthy way, of course) with the food in the house. No brownies, but there's brown rice!TyKes Momhttp://the-north-forty.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689362661450736563.post-73509498432931734422011-05-15T01:29:25.484-05:002011-05-15T01:29:25.484-05:00I love your post.

We also don't have cable tv but use an antenna and have plenty of shows, our phone has no upgrades,no caller id or call waiting. The only cell phone we have is the one provided by my employer, its simple but its all we need. I love the simple life!6Jellybeanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09487398751763689886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689362661450736563.post-73487680836498367562011-05-14T03:38:59.913-05:002011-05-14T03:38:59.913-05:00Great post. :o) Great advice. :o)Great post. :o) Great advice. :o)Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16370393893728279355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689362661450736563.post-55569464437414066722011-05-12T10:20:13.312-05:002011-05-12T10:20:13.312-05:00I love it!
