Why are my walks lined with cypress clippings? Because it is the time of year when the rabbits come out and devour my tulips! Usually I am able to spray the tulips with Homemade Rabbit Repellant but this year we have had a lot of precipitation (for the high desert), so it has been less fun to work outside but more conducive to plant growth. In other words, an ideal environment for the rabbits to dine on all of my tulips. I remembered that my husband had clipped the Cypress, so I grabbed branches from burn the pile and lined the walks. As soon as it warms up, I will remove the Cypress and coat my tulips with Rabbit Repellant.
Prep-Ahead Meals, Cooking Tips, and Frugal Living
Welcome. I'm Alea!
On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
