(I really have to make some jam and free up the space my fruit is taking up!)<br /><br />Last weekend, I bough 15 lbs of ground beef that was on sale. Doing it in small trips makes it easier on the budget.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01817017829323955078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-81911075227297626612009-09-18T09:50:25.727-05:002009-09-18T09:50:25.727-05:00Tug - couldn't get that to work with my senten...Tug - couldn't get that to work with my sentence structure. Should've just left it at half, I guess. :)<br /><br />Leanne - I'm not sure I like lamb well enough to have that much of it on hand. I like it once in a while, though. Pork is a different story, though. I could probably eat pork every day. <br /><br />Janet - Thanks for stopping by! I've heard a lot about you. :) I have your blog bookmarked, but haven't been there for a while. Going to check it out again now...Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-15942750001413756952009-09-18T08:51:28.519-05:002009-09-18T08:51:28.519-05:00Hi!

I actually just posted about this very subject a few weeks ago on our blog (http://schaafchronicles.blogspot.com/2009/08/cooking-ahead.html). I've enjoyed reading yours!

I've bought smaller animals whole before, like lamb and rabbit and turkeys in the middle of summer when they're dirt cheap and used it instead of chicken but even the lamb which would be the most expensive was only £45 so much more easily managed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16340429187911872470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-37691667871222236252009-09-17T18:21:42.844-05:002009-09-17T18:21:42.844-05:00I just say 'a whole beef'... ;-)
You know...I just say 'a whole beef'... ;-)<br /><br />You know me, I don't cook, so when I do, it's as needed and what sounds good.Tughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03603072260312513790noreply@blogger.com
