Tomorrow, I will be co-hosting an all-text chat on the The Motherhood. We will discuss caring for our pets and how we treat them like members of our family. We would love for you to share your experiences, knowledge, fun pet anecdotes, and even pictures if you have them.

Details:

Meet me and my friends at The Motherhood on Thursday, May 10,  2012 at 8 p.m. ET.  We will chat for 30 minutes!

The all-text chat will be hosted by Amanda Larson of Coping with Frugality and the co-hosts will include:

Alaina of Dinker & Giggles
Courtney of Joy of Momma Joyner
Shell of Not Quite Susie Homemaker
Terri of Eco Crazy Mom
and me, Alea of Premeditated Leftovers

I used to think that the crazy in “crazy cat lady” referred to the lady, but living with our cats, Calvin and Hobbes, has made it obvious to me that it is definitely describing the cats.

Our pets are a significant and joyful part of our lives. We love their little quirks, look forward to their cuddles, and put a lot of thought into care. I hope to see you tomorrow at The Motherhood as we discuss our pets in more depth.

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.
