Hi Blog Friends! I have not posted in such a LONG time. What have I been doing? Just living life, I guess. The Spring months always seems to be a mighty crazy time of year for our family - but then, what time of year is not this way for the average home school family? I want to let you know of a fabulous website that I happened upon. (Not quite sure how I landed there - but I did.) It is called Living On A Dime and you can access it at: Tawra has some unique and creative ways to help us stretch our monthly budgets! She covers everything from: finding great deals at the grocery store, to pairing down our wardrobes and making the most of what we have. In these times of rising costs, it is becoming even MORE important to live carefully. I encourage you all to pop by the Living On A Dime website and spend a few minutes. You won't be disappointed. On a frugal note, do you ever have broken and slightly stale graham crackers that you are not sure what to do with? After seeing the price of a prepared graham cracker pie crust in the grocery store the other day, a light went on in my brain. I immediately saw the ziplock bag of broken graham crackers that I have been stashing in the back of my pantry. I hadn't been sure what to do with them, but I did know that I couldn't throw them out. Upon returning from the grocery store, I pulled out my bag of crackers and my food processor and began pulsing those neglected and set- aside crackers into several cups of graham cracker crumbs. In less than 10 minutes I processed enough crackers to have crumbs for making 3 pie crusts right in my own kitchen - and for a lot less money. This is probably a no-brainer to many of you veteran, frugal-minded gals, but it was an exciting, new discovery for this lady! Hmmm...I think I'll whip up a pie for dessert tonight! |
