We have been eating out of our food storage and freezer for the last little bit. We made the decision to not spend $$ on groceries and put that money in savings to 'recoup' after taxes.
So I have been baking and cooking from scratch for the last couple of months. Tonight my dear husband said, "It takes a wise woman to have all this food put by for us to eat. In the future I won't ask if you really need all that." What a wonderful compliment. It is a grand thing to receive such high praise.
:) It is sweet for him to say that. Just remember that he probably thinks wonderful things about you even when he forgets to say them.
ReplyDeleteI know you're right.
ReplyDeleteThat is the most wonderful compliment..And I so totally agree. You are doing just as the bible teaches us. Prepare for our families.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I do the same thing at times. One time, his truck motor blew up.. [the kids were home then]. We made do with one vechicle, and we eat out of the garden and freezer and saved money for a new motor ,instead of going and borrowing money from the bank...Our grown kids still remember this. I hope it was a good lesson for them .. And they will follow through teaching their children too.
We took the Dave Ramsey class a few years ago. Best class ever! I wish we would have learned the cash system at a much younger age!!!
