Sure...we have neither crib nor cradle but we might have a deep freeze.
But you can have a crib, you know. We have one here with your name on it. I think two babies should fit into one crib for a while at least. We have a changing table too.

One of the benefits of twins is that they can co-sleep by themselves!
I just went to the grocery store and thought about costs while I shopped. One of the problems with the legislative experiment is that you don't get to shop for an entire month, because you can pick up 5 lbs of hamburger (or ground turkey) for $10 which could go a long way.
Even so, I haven't =had= to budget-buy for two decades now. But since I do all my own cooking, I'm at least familiar with prices and still try to shop frugally!
In college, I used to spice up my ramen by dropping in an egg and some frozen vegetables.
If I am very lucky, I will never, ever have to eat that again.

I used to do the exact same thing. Except without the veggies.

God, yes!
At my poorest (just out of college) I used to ear ramen with potatoes and onion, and a slice of cheese. I thought it was good!
Ramen, a can of tuna and a bag of frozen or rehydrated veggies was standard camping food. That and hot tang. When I've made it on the stove, I think I smell the bluet gas, it's that closely linked in my head.
I used to add canned mushrooms and water chestnuts.
The other thing with eggs, as a single person, is I find it hard to eat as many eggs as would be needed to go through a dozen-- so I just tend to do without-- and they are harder to stretch-- although I have seen a scrambled egg/spaghetti combo.
That's why I always do the egg substitute. It's just easier.
Ramen beef flavor soup is actually a comfort food for me, though I know those fried noodles and all the salt are anything but healthy. I'm trying to wean myself over to miso and Japanese onion soup instead.
Eggs do last for a surprisingly long time. Hard boiled egg is my favorite salad protein. yum!
And, yeah, how could they be shocked that it would be hard to eat on $3 a day? sheesh.
Fred, I'm so sorry about Teddy. he sounds like a sweetheart who came into your family's life when you really needed him.

My friends' twins shared a crib for several months (maybe like 5?) and it certainly cut down on the laundry at least. Then they rapidly got too big to share.
