eating poor

So I've been pretty broke lately, but because I work at an awesome Co-op natural market, I get lots and lots of great free food. Produce, fresh meat and seafood, pastry, even a few grocery items. So often I just need to buy a couple things to turn what I have been able to scrounge into something tasty. Sometimes it's the other way around, like today.
I got my tax refund recently, and while I have been spending too much of it, I have been trying to remain somewhat frugal (need to have the money to start the karaoke business). So the other day I went to the accursed Wal-Mart to pick up a couple of things to help me organize my room. My room is very tiny, you see, so I was going to get some hooks and whatnot to hang on my doors. While there I saw a couple of grocery items that all have been staples for me at one time or another: frozen chicken strips, frozen pizza and cup noodles. So I got some of these things.
To the point: today I made a frozen pizza and added some goat's milk mozzarella and some parmesan. I realize that might not seem exciting, and it wasn't, really. It was, however, a lot better than it would have been alone. So, that's all this post is really about. That, and maybe doing something with this blog that's just been sitting here collecting e-dust for so long.
