New features, Blogathon stuff

Ok, I just wanted to let everyone know that I’ve now added a new feature, the live webcam page! On the day of the blogathon, I’ll be streaming live the stickam live feed from my Windows PC, which will remain on all day! The ustream feed will be where-ever I go, and hopefully if there’s a good enough wifi connection (and my stupid wifi on the macbook works) then it’ll be good to go!

Please check it out. I’ll be periodically live streaming the ustream feed before the blogathon!

I also wanted to say thank you to more sponsors who have brought the pledges to higher than last years amount! Thanks everyone! This charity is Really close to my heart, especially Meesh’s, and we Seriously greatly appreciate every single cent that goes to them. Thank you everyone!

Broke Food

When you’re Seriously broke, what do you eat the most of? You know what I’m talking about. When you’ve got that extra step day where you can only spend 10 bucks for the week, what kind of foods do you eat?

Here’s what I lived on when I was Totally broke and poor:

- Instant Ramen. Seriously. You can buy this at the supermarket for like 10 for 1 buck. I’m not talking about fancy shmancy ramen. I’m talking about Top Ramen. It’s dirt cheap. Actually, I still eat it!

- Spaghetti. Believe it or not, I thought of many many different types of sauces for spaghetti, and the actual spaghetti is cheap! If you buy the generic no brand spaghetti, I’ve seen 5 lb bags for about a buck or two. Seriously. You can live on spaghetti for a long time. Add a little butter and garlic to the spaghetti and voila, dinner!

- Mac and cheese. You can get these relatively cheap. And if you are able to get hot dogs, you can combine them together. Holy cow, how can anyone not eat this! It’s good stuff.

So tell me, what do you eat when you’re broke?
