Saving With Shellie

NOVEMBER 16, 2012

We typically spend Thanksgiving at Stan’s grandmother’s house. I’m not a huge fan of Thanksgiving food and neither are several of the others in my family so we just pick and choose the traditional Thanksgiving dishes we like and fill in the rest of the meal with non-traditional Thanksgiving foods.

The Frugal Girl

FEBRUARY 26, 2024

I’m a huge fan of mystery novels and wondered what was involved in becoming a licensed PI in my state (a 60-hour training course and a culminating 3-hour exam). She’s welcome to live at home for the next few years if she’d like so she can save the bulk of her salary. I joke that it was my mid-life crisis.

blogs at Modern Tightwad and is most content being at home with her husband and dog, writing about ways to make the life you love, the life you can afford. When my family is at home, and we’re all tired, a warm meal on a cold day can revive us all. Fiscally, it’s smarter to cook at home.
