“Leanne Brown started the Good and Cheap cookbook as her thesis project for a graduate degree in food studies at New York University.
The premise is simple: cooking nutritious meals on the tight budget of $4 a day, which is roughly how much the people in SNAP, the federal government’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, get allocated each day in food stamps. The result is a beautiful cookbook chock-full of recipes that you can download for free online.”
Sunday, November 4th – Hi everyone, I’m Gemma and I’m so sorry to haveto remake this post,but I desperately need help to get groceries + keep my heating and lights on.
As many of you already know, I have been struggling these past few months to make ends meet and pay off my bills and get groceries due to my welfare benefits (Universal Credit and Housing Benefit) having been revoked under the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. I’ve been struggling horribly to keep my heating on as it’s getting into winter where I live, with most nights being 0°C/ 32°F. And as you can see from the images above of my meters, they are both on their emergency credit and won’t last until my next benefit payment due at the end of November.
I desperately need help to keep my heating on and to get groceries + supplies for November, I’ve just got a few days left of food and I’m trying really hard to ration it. I’m literally freezing, hungry and drowning in debt at the moment because of my sanctions and since this situation has been ongoing for so long, government aid/food banks are unable to offer me any more assistance.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life and, sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody has to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling. Thank you for your help 💖
Please consider helping out guys if you possibly can, I desperately need help to keep my lights/hot water on and get groceries. Literally anything helps right now. 🙏💖
