So are you wondering why I have a picture of leftover spaghetti next to my chore cards? So glad you asked. I have been using my chore cards for over 20 years now. They tell me what chores are due to be done each day and help me stay caught up on housework which we all know is never ending. But these cards really have helped. Anyway, on Mondays one of my chores is to clean out the fridge. When I clean the fridge on Mondays I am able to see what leftovers I have for Dad's lunches and what I need to use up during the week in my dinner menus. So on Monday I noticed I had leftover spaghetti sauce from Sunday's lasagna meal. Last night we had spaghetti so I could use the sauce up. I only had 1/2 a quart jar left but I added a pint of canned tomatoes to it and some leftover hamburger from Saturday nights tacos. It's a great way to use food up and not waste it. So now you know why I took this picture! I hate throwing food away!
