In my free time I enjoy canning and preserving food (well, I enjoy the results of it, ha!), baking, library storytimes, and being involved in our church’s Bible study, meals for the sick, and other various ministries. I would probably add it to our savings account for house projects. That is a never-ending list!

My niece goes to Goodwill and buys what I can only describe as bags of junk, and she makes a full-time income selling it on eBay. Lean into cheap meals. Avoid meals that require pricier ingredients , and lean into budget-friendly meals. Remember that money saved is money earned! I do this ALL the time!

I’m thankful we had to learn how to cut back—how ridiculous was it to have dual full-time incomes/no kids and not save a cent?! Learning how to cook well has saved us a significant amount of money, and made us healthier. We’ve had such good times as a family hiking, kayaking, backpacking, climbing, skiing, and camping.

My biggest financial regret is the amount of money we spent on restaurant meals from the time we were married and both working full time to when we had kids. Now I wish those dollars had gone into our savings accounts. What’s an embarrassing money mistake you’ve made?
