Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

Use What You Have Month

August 29, 2019

I wrote this last week, but I’m still on a “use what you have” mindset where possible.

I decided to declare a “use what you have” period of time this month and it has been very successful!

In the beauty department I’ve been using all my samples up and trying to decide on a foundation. Also, since I bought my new skincare last month I’ve been using that. I did spring for a couple of Fresh mini moisturizers though because my other moisturizer is almost empty. I’ll post a beauty update at some point so you can see how that is going. (Note: I found an IT Cosmetics Confidence in A Compact foundation for 1/2 price at TJ Maxx so that should last awhile. Yay!)

Because, we were so stocked up on food and I’d been going to the store too many times instead of using what we had on hand, I decided to use it all up before I went to the store again. That worked out really well! I only went to the store on Wednesday to replenish milk, but otherwise we have been eating what’s already here. Today however is going to be pizza night – whether from the store or take out. The pantry, freezer, and fridge are all pretty low so we’ve earned it. Tomorrow I hope to run to the store in the morning and get restocked. (Note: I was able to get to the store and replenish supplies.)

So, I declare Use What We Have Month a success! Next month I want to start getting out of my cooking rut and use the Dinner A Love Story Playbook – it’s time to branch out. I think I was going to do that last year but chickened out – THIS year is the year to try it!
