Monday Q&A | Cameras, lenses, lunches, and staying thin
The majority of the photos on this blog are shot with the 50mm, though, simply because it’s so light and convenient, and because it’s so simple to use in low light.
How in the world does your whole family stay so fit? think the overall slim-ness of our family is attributable to several things.
Every Monday, I answer a few of the questions that my readers send me. If you have a question you’d like me to answer in a future Q&A post, just leave me a comment here or email me (thefrugalgirl [at] gmail [dot] com) and put Q&A in the subject line.

To Blog or Not to Blog?
At the time, I had just started reading lots of blogs, and there were no blogs out there focusing on the MN grocery stores that I shop at--Cub and Rainbow. I spent lots of evenings (and late nights), while my husband was working and the kids were sleeping, pouring over the technical details of running a blog and trying to decide what I really wanted to say. And though there are accepted practices I began Cents in the Cities in February 2009 because I wanted to talk shopping deals--specifically at MN stores. And I loved it!

Budget Friendly Recipe Sources for Frugal Families
The family-friendly budget category is its own thing and within this area it can sometimes be hard to easily find what I need from general cookbooks and “foodie” sites. Here are some of my favorite resources for creating family meals on a budget. Erin, the publisher of 5 Dollar Dinners, blogs about her recipes, all costing under $5 to feed around 4 people. Budget friendly recipe sources have actually become way easier to find these days. More bloggers are writing about the food they make.

Carnival of Debt Reduction No. 185: The Charles Dickens Debtor’s Prison Edition
Bloggers , I am hosting the first edition of the Carnival of Pecuniary Delights , a brand new personal finance, frugal and green living blog carnival, this Thursday April 2, 2009.
This was sometimes achieved by the help of family members, but as not everyone had that advantage, the system was somewhat nonsensical especially because living within the prisons required the spending of money with virtually no opportunity to earn it.
“Pray Welcome to Carnival of Debt Reduction No. 185, The Charles Dickens Debtor’s Prison Edition.
