14 Poor Man's Habits Italian Immigrants Used That Still Save $1,000 a Month

Fourteen habits carried over from a Calabrian immigrant kitchen in Brooklyn, each one tied to a real mechanism and a number a household can check against its own bill. Bread storage, potatoes and ethylene, the cost of a cooked serving, two lines of the electric bill, and the appliance in the garage that was already paid for. Also the canning step one generation left out, and the single Sunday habit the other thirteen depend on. #cucinapovera #foodwaste #frugalliving #italianamerican #depressionerahabits
