Read-Aloud Thursday- Waldo
It’s only SORT OF a read-aloud buy my daughter is in love! With who? Waldo!!! Yes, the books that were such a craze when i was in elementary school/jr high that I was never able to get my hands on one. I found the original (above) at a used book sale a few years back. […] Read more…
WFMW – Frugal Pizza Sauce
I had a heck of a time trying to think of a post for this week and it just came to me on Sunday while cooking dinner. I save money on pizza sauce by using spaghetti sauce instead. Making my own is NOT cheaper (unless I were to GROW my own stuff). My favorite pizza […] Read more…

Easy Savings!
I’ve tried the normal coupon route and it just doesn’t work for me. It requires a lot of time and organization and my local paper stinks and the nearest metro one quit having the good coupon fliers in it. I don’t completely write off coupons & discounts, though, I just look for EASY ones. My […] Read more…
The Office
No, this isn’t about the tv show. Don’t I wish! Nope, this is about taming the office monster. Soon after we found out we were pregnant, we decided that Bones would move his business/office to our home to reduce costs. I don’t remember mentioning it, but my office was the project that I worked on […] Read more…
