Short and sweet post today, ashamedly showing off this weeks food waste, as promised. Visit http://www.thefrugalgirl.com/ to learn more.
It isn’t as bad as I expected it might be. The only food waste we’ve had this week was after tonights dinner.
I present the evidence:
Romaine lettuce salad, a piece of salmon and a potato. Not pictured: two cherry tomatoes that molded, even though I just bought them a couple days ago.
I haven’t been feeling all that well the past couple days (I think I’m coming down with something) and tonight I just couldn’t finish dinner. Yngve is usually pretty good about cleaning my plate if I don’t, but he had eaten all of his plus most of the salad and most of the potatoes and he said he was full. I know it wouldn’t get eaten otherwise, so it went in the trash. *sigh*
So, had it not been for that, the only food waste I would have had would have been those two cherry tomatoes, which would have been bad enough!
Hopefully next week wont be bad, either.
Hope you feel better soon.
Thank you! I hope I do, too!
Sorry your sick! Glad you didn’t have much food waste this week.
I’m glad I didn’t, too! I’m hoping for zero food waste next week! :)
That’s not bad! Do you have compost trash in Norway? I used to live in Germany and we had compost trash. I doubt your plate waste could have been added to it, but it’s worth asking. :-)
Feel better!
No, we don’t have compost trash in Norway. :( They are really good about recycling services, but no compost. I’ve considered “balcony composting” but I think that would generate way more earth than we could use just for container gardening on our balcony. I’m feeling better today, so I’m sure I’ll manage to eat everything! :)
