Do you bake it first? E I do bake it first! If you have a chest freezer or other non-defrosting freezer, homemade bread can stay fresh for several months in its frozen state. Kristen, I have a sewing question. I don’t know how to use a sewing machine so hand sewing it is. Hi Kristen! Pre-slice it?

The Frugal Girl

SEPTEMBER 26, 2023

I turned it inside out, used some matching thread from my sewing box, and closed up the hole. I made a batch of granola Zoe and I have been eating a lot of homemade yogurt, and I have sometimes been tempted to buy a box of granola to sprinkle on top of our yogurt/fruit combos. Seriously life-changing, guys.

Do you love to bake? Some people don’t have time or don’t like to bake but would love to buy home-baked cookies and treats. My sister-in-law buys dozens every Christmas from a mom who bakes for cash. And a friend of mine sells her homemade Christmas candy this time of year. Sell your crafts.

If you have talent with a sewing machine, you can even make them look nice. Instead of shelling out $6 bucks on kitchen counter cleaner, you might want to consider some very inexpensive homemade options. Baking soda and vinegar mixed together makes a good cleaner for kitchens and bathrooms. You can also buy cloth napkins.
