"Tomato Soup and other cost savings" by Steve Adams

George Caylor and I were talking one Sunday afternoon and he invited us over to enjoy some tomato soup and grilled cheese. I laughed and told him that was OUR longstanding Sunday lunch tradition too.

After we hung up, I started to realize how things we do repeatedly, sometimes unknowingly, become traditions. That realization made me reflect on the difference between a meaningful tradition and a costly habit.

Years ago, I watched coworkers walk in with a designer coffee and two bottles of soda.  I looked at my own store-bought coffee and I realized that item which I traditionally bought every morning was costing a fortune over time. I switched to brewing coffee at home, stopped eating out daily and invested the savings.

Tradition is beautiful because it grounds us in where we came from. But it is wise to review those things that are daily habits. Having said that, I would be hard pressed to forgo my weekly tomato soup and grilled cheese…I can cook mine to taste right here at home!
