My car needed a $900 repair right after I paid my rent, so I had to get creative with my food budget for the month.

Ouch, that $900 hit right after rent is brutal. What kind of creative meals did you end up making? I've been in that spot and lived on a lot of rice and beans. Did you find any cheap recipes that were actually good?

My husband still talks about the cabbage soup I made that week.

Sounds like a sweet memory, not a bad thing.
