Family Balance Sheet

My composting adventures all started about 9 years ago when our local Penn State Cooperative Extension office offered a free composting bin (the round one in the picture) when you attended their free composting seminar. I have a system going, but I am a laid back composter. So what did I learn at the seminar?

From composting and saving rain water to using cloth napkins and reusable grocery bags, I have made many changes in my life over the last 20 years. Thanks for reading. It was in downtown Pittsburgh at a park where the three rivers meet, if I remember correctly. Earth Day has come a long way. I have come a long way too.

The Frugal Girl

After I had kids, I swapped that time to growing all sorts of interesting heirloom foods in my backyard. I love many of the posts, but my favorite regular topics are Five Frugal Things and Thankful Thursdays. I have had times when it was necessary to stretch every cent, but thankfully we have more wiggle room these days.
