Frugal, tasty food is sooo important. If you can cook food the whole family loves for a dollar or two per person, then you will significantly cut down on fast food expenses! I used to cook “frugally” with my wide array of Hamburger Helpers. We still ate out a lot. Gee, […]

I usually go grocery shopping on Mondays. But last Monday was Labor Day. We were in Ohio visiting relatives. When we came home, we set up Olivia’s Big Girl Bed. No shopping.
On Tuesday, I had MOPS from 9:15-11:30, and that’s really the only time of day I can go shopping.
Wednesday was […]

We have been deemed by the state as financially responsible enough to purchase our own food.
I mentioned a while back that we could not find room in our $13,000/yr salary for food, leading to our acceptance of foodstamps.
After nine months of intense budgeting, Josh won a $15,000 scholarship of which, approximately $9,000 goes toward his […]

MOPS costs $40 per semester with a $20 registration fee.

In my efforts to save money, I came across this recipe that replaces the endless cans of condensed cream soup on your cupboard.

So I mentioned how much fun I’ve been having while couponing lately. Well, it was another late night yesterday. Er… I should say, “early morning.” Maybe, if Olivia didn’t go to bed at 10:30, and Josh didn’t insist on watching M*A*S*H until 11:30, and then the dishes didn’t have to be done… maybe […]
