Way to go 11cats2beagles!!!
In the past couple of days we have used up the leftover salmon, the leftover salad, a loaf of bread (must bake tomorrow), a container of margarine, the last of a bag of mints, the last cola in the box (the box lasted us three weeks) and a couple of tomatoes.
I used up some wool suiting cutting out a jacket (tiny scraps left...I was worried there wasn't enough fabric) and most of some bright pink silk that I have been saving to make a dress.

Re: Smashing September Use It Up and Recycle Challenge
Over the last few days I have used up a few items.
A bobbin of grey thread.
The leftover ham from a few weeks ago that I froze.
Two chicken breasts that had been in the freezer for a while.
Tonight will see the end of my facial cleanser.

Re: Smashing September Use It Up and Recycle Challenge
A couple of use ups here:
Finished up a half pound of bacon (big sacrifice you understand) and the last five eggs in the oldest dozen in the fridge.
Used the bacon grease to make milk gravy with a 1/2 gallon of milk almost at the expiration date. Then had the leftover biscuits and gravy for breakfast today.
Finished up a loaf of bread and a carton of oleo and a stick of butter.
September has been a pretty fair use up month - not perfect but much better than usual. Going for using up everything in October.

Found a box of paper grocery sacks in the basement during decluttering today, so took half of them out for recycling. Finding more things for eBay ... though there's no guarantee I can get rid of them that way, LOL!
Dinner used the last of the roast pork and various containers of leftover potatoes, broccoli, etc.
Pulled a bag of our garden tomatoes from the freezer to add to soup ...
