Re: Cost of Living

We used to do frozen garlic bread this way by adding a lot of butter. I see the price for the sq. ft. in Canada is way less than in the UK, at least in London. In London, you have to pay a lot for a...

Re: Cost of Living

Well, it's actually true that many people are starving. That's a good point about birds, but they don't really get it from a dumpster. A couple of years ago, we bought birdfeeders (I know that you...

Re: Cost of Living

Oh! Wow! Thanks for this life hack. TBH, we always throw away bread because it's molded, and I feel kinda bad for doing this. I remember how my grandma used to tell me that when they were kids, they...
