A couple years ago my youngest daughter gave me a useful little little book used to help remember which cookbook “make-again” recipes are in. I’ve got an abundance of cookbooks so Where In The World Is That Recipe? has been a great time-saving resource for me.
Just a few of the cookbooks in my collection and [...]

phone. When Cingular South got gobbled up by an AT&T merge, my DH and I changed our cell phone provider. Both of us settled for the “free” phone available with the plan we selected. It wasn’t much, and mine finally bit the dust. A couple weeks ago I made a trip to a Cellular store [...]

I’m passing along an excerpt from an email I received this morning from Everyday Cheapskate a free newsletter sent out by Debt-Proof Living. Some of the solutions were new to me, and with budgets being stretched like elastic (hopefully they will bounce back) every penny-saving idea helps.

Earlier in January I entered a giveaway over at What A World. Kati gave away a Ziploc Vacuum Sealer starter kit. I had seen them in the grocery store but didn’t pay them much attention. One of my daughters uses one and likes it pretty well so I threw my name into the proverbial comment [...]

A not so strange thing happened to me on the way to the fabric store. I started to pass our local thrift store, and it sucked me in. I confess I didn’t try to resist very hard. As a result, I’m going to have Saturday Show and Tell. Here are my thrifting finds of the day.
