Miss Thrifty2 July 28, 2010
Were you wondering why I had been quiet these past few days? Well, this packed cool box, which was sitting in my kitchen on Friday, should provide some clues as to why.
It contains:
– 2 x locally caught trout, neatly packed
– 1 x empty plastic jar, filled with homemade seafood chowder
– 1 x empty ice cream tub, filled with tomato soup made from homegrown tomatoes
– 1 x empty peanut jar, filled with cream of tomato soup made from homegrown tomatoes
– 1 x jar of homemade quince jam
– 1 x jar of homemade greengage jam
– 1 x jar of homemade blackberry and apple jam
– 1 x jar of homemade orange marmalade
It can mean only one thing…
…Yep, Frugal Grandma has been in town!
What a lucky frugal granddaughter I am. The jam packed cool box is nothing, by the way. Last time Frugal Grandma came to visit, she brought her own teapot.

That’s one fantastic box of goodies!!
I’ve a tea-pot exactly like that. We don’t use it though; it’s kept on top of the kitchen dresser along with a couple more teapots.
