I'm just shocked at how many bagels are wasted a day!
I'd seriously be considering a bit of dumpster diving if I lived in your house Dar. Bagels for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Then again, if I lived in your house you'd probably be kind enough to let me eat with the family...

That was my first thought. And I thought we'd leave them out for a while.

Then Mrs. Dar reminded me that it would also feed the raccoons. I've already had to deal with one raccoon in the attic this year, I'm not going to fight another. We decided to pick them up.

Point made. But maybe after you gathered them up you could take them to the local park or something. Just thinking outsid the box here.... I don't know.

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

Whenever I go out to eat, I collect everyone's leftovers and bring them home for the chickies. When I have dinner at a friend's house, I do the same thing. Party? Ditto.

Yeah, it's a little weird but my friends have all gotten used to it by now, and some even save their leftovers and give them to me when I come visiting. What do they get out of it? Yummy, delicious, healthy farm fresh eggs for free.

My parents, on the other hand, actually go dumpster diving for their birds.

No, really! There's one (independent) local grocery near them that tosses any veggies/fruits that might possibly be thinking about going bad three days from now. (Most groceries won't give away or throw away their less-than-perfect goods - they claim it's a liability issue). So, every now and then my 83-year-old parents grab flashlights and go there to sift through the store's dumpsters after closing.

They bring home stuff you wouldn't believe was thrown away. Beautiful lettuces and cabbage and greens with a just few slightly wilted leaves on the outside.

It's such a waste.... well, except when mom and dad go retrieve it!

When I lived in Port Orchard, WA we raised birds of many type - we cut a deal with the day-old bread store in town and they would save us the bread that could no longer be sold - for around 5 dollars a barrel - it was quite a good deal. We'd mix it in with the grain we fed. Possibly some of you birders could look at your local bread shops?

Just be glad it wasn't 40 boxes of instant mashed potatoes on a dew-ey night.
