Mine--don't laugh--is random fruit from fruit trees hanging over walls and over the sidewalk.

Although, I once tried to take a plum from a wasp who was sitting on the fruit, and she turned and looked at me, and I quickly let go and let her have it.

this is great, My favorite foraging back in the day was a giant pear tree hung way over onto the sidewalk, I grabbed dozens of pears for months.

oh except I lived across from an abandoned orchard and seasonally got free apples while living in Portland. so that was pretty good.

My frugality this week was upcycling a pair of abandoned broken flip flops with paracord to make new huarachas, running sandals.

I also caught several ghost crabs on the beach a few days ago, enough to make dinner.
