Broads On A Budget: Fresh, Healthy, and Within The Budget!

Lately, I've seen a few news segments citing the higher cost in buying fresh produce and healthy foods compared with processed, prepared, packaged, but far from healthy products. This caught my attention. Eating for health is... well, sort of my goal. I want my family (and myself!) to be healthy, but what I want most is to enjoy my food while feeling great about it's health and nutrition benefits. We can watch every cooking show on the cable channels, read each new cooking magazine with eager determination, and lose an hour (or two!) on Pinterest boards, but if we can't afford the grocery bill to create all those wonderful meals - it's all a wash. So...is it possible to prepare healthy meals with fresh ingredients AND stick to a budget? Broads everywhere know the answer is YOUUUU BETCHA! One issue I struggled with was meal-plan-cohesiveness.

Keyes explains that the major news organizations struggled with how to report this, using euphemisms such as Jackson wanted to do something to his sensitive areas. (It escapes the Broads why they couldn't just say Jackson wanted to castrate him.) Euphemania

IT will probably kill me...

First of all, let me state that I love my husband. Let it also be known that this fact may not save him from becoming a new "compost heap" in my back yard. Maybe I'll plant a few shrubs on top, that would look nice. Ooh, a nice gazebo covered in climbing roses and maybe a swing with....what? Oh. I have tried to come to terms with something that sends me into a state of near panic at the mere mention of the word. Retirement. There... I said it and didn't swoon. I have heard the stories from married ladies with retired husbands, and with, first my father's and now my husband's lay-offs, I have experienced brief glimpses into this world. So, I have learned some things . The main thing, really, is that I would like to opt out but cannot, in good conscience, do that. He can't work forever. Right? My dearest other half is only 40, so this retirement isn't happening anytime soon, but still. He works as a carpenter, wh
