Recipes & meal planning

Sorry it took this long to post what I did for my lesson.

To organize my recipes I typed up all my loose paper recipes & my favorites from books & saved them onto a flash drive. When I have enough I am going to have my own cook book printed. (This way I have all my favorites in one spot & I won't need to pull out more then that one book.)

For meal planning I have a favorites list with all of my family's favorite meals listed. Every month I take a blank calendar & fill in all the dinners for each day. (I do leave a few open for nights out or new recipe auditions) Then on a separate paper I create my weekly menu, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, desserts, & snacks. This is where I can get my grocery list.

I have a thing I put together to compare prices from all the adds weekly to find the best prices. I take this with me to Wal-Mart because they will price match without you having to have the add, you only need the price. If they don't have the same brand you can use the store brand as a substitute.

I also found this website: www.gurusdeals.com (I think it only has the deals in Utah. Sorry Halee) On here he has gone through all the adds & has the best prices already done for you. He also has great tips for ways to get up to 70% off on meals at restaurants, clothing stores, etc. You have to check it out!!

Any ?'s just post a comment. I hope these help with organizing that recipe box/cupboard & saving you a few $$.

Photoshop questions?

I am going to cover some tips for working with Photoshop on Monday. Does anyone have any suggestions about the kinds of things you would like to learn how to do? Or a photo you would like us to revise?
