Living from My Pantry and Freezer

June 1st will be the beginning of an experiment of sorts for my family and me--we are going to prepare all of our meals and snack from what we have in our pantry and freezer.  The exception will be fresh produce and dairy.  What prompted this??  My husband came to me last week and said that he will likely be laid off at the end of May.  I have been on a medical leave of absence for the past 10 weeks and will return to work the 25th of May.  I have spent the last 10 weeks using coupons to stock us up on everything our family uses.  Little did I know that we may be living from that stockpile.  Even if he doesn't get laid off, I will still do this because I want to prove to myself that I can.  I am looking forward to the challenge and will post regularly how I am doing.

Here's to frugal living and being a coupon queen.
