$10 Well Spent





At least I think so. Here are the goods: 1 lb yeast ($2.34), bag lemons ($1.99), 1 pt EVOO ($3.49), 1 lb brown rice ($.79), 4 lbs salt ($.98), 2 tsp peppercorns (in stock in my kitchen) (1/4 of $1.00 = $.25). Total cost = $9.84. The last choice was a toss up between finding sugar for $1.20 or the bag of rice for $.79. Since I have a small amount of maple sugar and the rice has more nutritional value I went with the rice. It also gave me a little extra money to add in the peppercorns.



Also pictured are soybeans left from last year and the maple sugar from earlier in the year.
