Have you tweaked one of my recipes?

The Frugal Girl

My friend Polly suggested to me that we should have a discussion about tweaking the recipes that I’ve posted, and I think this is a great idea. She suggested I put out the top five recipes and ask for your tweaks on those. Sooo, I’ll put out a few suggestions, BUT if you’ve tweaked another one of my posted recipes, feel free to share that too.

Five Frugal Things | also, I PASSED

The Frugal Girl

First up: I passed all of my competency tests yesterday, first try. Yay!! The two professors who watched me said that I did a great a job and that they could tell I’d gone to a bunch of the optional open labs (and that’s true; I did sign up for tons of those). So… a big WHEW. I have competency tests each semester, and I think future ones will feel slightly less nerve-wracking because at least I will know what to expect.

Thankful Thursday | after a bad Friday

The Frugal Girl

This week, I am thankful: that my ear has healed up I don’t know if was a zit or just a pressure injury from my stethoscope, but my right ear got a seriously sore spot on the skin and it hurt like you-know-what when I put my stethoscope in. This, unfortunately, coincided with an assignment where I had to do blood pressure readings on a bunch of different people.
