Welcome to my first “How We Frugal-ed” recap of 2020. Frugal living is NOT about feeling deprived. Frugal living is being intentional with our money and creative with our resources, so we have more to put towards the things that are important to us. We want to live WELL, on LESS Money.

Restaurant food was just cheaper than when I cooked meals myself, because at that time I couldn’t cook any Chinese food, and Western food needed things like olive oil, cheese, butter, pasta…all expensive in China because they have to be imported. Is there anything unique about frugal living in your area?

My mother was loving and worked so hard to provide for us, but it was frequently a struggle to get food, keep heat on, and other necessities. As an adult, I can see it was likely a mixture of not enough income, high cost of living area, mismanagement of money, and kids just being expensive for single mothers particularly.

Many people have the false belief that organic foods are a luxury that only a select few can afford. While organic foods are more expensive than non-organic foods, they can be more affordable than you might realize. They too are nice resources that you can use to find sources of organic food in your area.

My interest in frugality is less about saving money specifically, and more about making good use of the resources I have. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love. It’s pretty amazing how long and far kids will walk if you just keep putting in food & water, and taking breaks to rest a bit.

Probably the largest part of your income goes to your primary needs, which includes groceries and utilities. Always make a list when you go to the grocery store.

I was standing in the natural foods aisle at my local grocery store the other day, bribing my children to behave themselves with some dried apricots. I can totally make this at home with a food processor. Add peanuts to your food processor or blender with the metal blade attached. No salt, no preservatives, no junky oils.
