Same old stuff around here. Been eating down the freezer/pantry. Made some yummy scalloped potatoes yesterday with leftover Christmas ham from the freezer, some cheese from the freezer (bought on...
Didn't get to make the scalloped potatoes since DH ended up not getting home from the doctor until 7 pm! He worked overtime last night and has physical therapy tonight, so I probably won't get it...
Jan.13--No spend, though we did drive to visit Dad. Made enchilada casserole in the crock pot to use up lots of stuff from the freezer/pantry. Line dried laundry. Downloaded some free ebooks. ...
Ugh! Sorry for all the typos. Am typing one handed on my kindle while the baby swipes at it. ;-)
Too much eating out this weekend. Some frugal successes, like line drying laundry. I also used a $10 off $10 coupon for Kohls to get a purple towel for DD. She needed another for when hers is in...
Jan. 7--No drive/no spend for me. DH did drive to work. I put a roast in the crockpot yesterday morning and am glad I did. DH helped his Dad change a tire and got home so late that we probably...
Thanks, everyone! I appreciate you sharing your insight, experiences, opinions, etc.
I am breastfeeding DS and thought that might help prevent some ear infections...but apparently not. The...
Jan. 5--Had to leave to get gas and milk. while I was out, I found some jammies for DS for $2 and a cute Hello Kitty coin purse for DD for .49. My in-laws brought dinner the past two nights and...
Jan. 4--Intended to be a no drive/ no spend, but DS has yet another ear infection, so I had to take him back to the dr. The new antibiotic he was precsribed was very expensive, but our insurance...
Hi, everyone! I always intend to pop on here more than once a month, but it never seems to happen! DS has been sick with ear infections and upper respiratory stuff, so my time and attention has...
Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice regarding chronic ear infections. My DS (7 months) always seems to have an ear infection, and he is miserable and up all night every night crying...
Did okay this week. Made a big pot of beef stew that allowed me to use up some odds and ends. I usually add some wine, but I didn't have any, so I just made it without instead of running to the...
Oh, and fidgie, here is a slipcover tutorial I had saved. Maybe it will help you, too:

Hi, everyone! I need to get back to posting. We've had several rounds of colds/flus/ear infections around here, plus DH and I are both in physical therapy. But it seems we are all feeling a little...
Fidgie!!! I don't know how I missed your big announcement, but CONGRATULATIONS! Oh my--this is exciting! I am so, so happy for you! :-)
Yay! I love this challenge. Not sure I can participate this month, but I'd like to cheer you all on! :-)
Wow! You all did great! I didn't have much time to post near the end of the month, but I did make my goal. I tossed a broken bubble gun, 8 party hats, a bunch of Happy Meal type toys (the bane of...
Oh, I meant to add, too, that a prepared a bunch of fruits and veggies for eating. Washed and sliced celery and put in an old pickle jar full of water. Washed and de-stemmed grapes and cherry...
Welcome, fidgie and debi! Well, I haven't been great about posting, and to be honest we have eaten out a few times. It's expensive and it destroys my dieting efforts (still trying to get rid of...
Welcome, Liv! I can't tell you how many times I wished I had held on to a receipt! It sure pays off!
Well...DH and I kind of fell off the frugal bandwagon because...we bought a new van! It was...
Way to go, Float On! You got rid of several large items and made a little money, too! That is great!
We donate all our stuff to a local thrift store that benefits a Christian high school across...
So glad you decided to join in, ejchase! You always inspire me to do better! :-)
Today just one thing: a broken magnet. I'll have to see what else I can dig up! :-)
Total: 73
That fruit cobbler sounds delicious, Stella. Would you be willing to share your recipe? I love ants on a log, too--I should make that for DD now that she can have peanut butter!
Went to the...
Fairly frugal weekend overall. We did eat out one night--tacos and ice cream--but it was pretty inexpensive. Cooked and ate at home the rest of the time. I've been using up what we have around...
Wow! You are rockin' it, TMC! :-) We ate out over the weekend--tacos and then ice cream for dessert. I'm not completely sorry--it was in expensive and a little treat now and then is nice--but now...
