Who cooks at home anymore, many people eat out. Even if you do cook at home, have you ever worn an apron? They were used to protect clothing while cooking – to keep grease splatters and spills contained on the apron. Mom taught fourth grade. Be careful where you spend your money! Mimeograph machines.

I do remember when I was young, my mom using coupons but now that I think back on it, she was not using them the right way. Collecting recipes that you will be cooking for that week, creating a shopping list and finding coupons that you will need for any of those items can really pay off. Use Coupons. Eat Out Less. Shop Thrift Stores.

Families don’t/can’t take time to cook at home from scratch. With the advancing numbers of two income families, often there isn’t anyone at home to start the meal. We ate basic meals at home. Mom was a stay-at-home Mom. If we had company, Mom made iced tea.

We shopped at garage sales, turned down the heat, combined errands to use less gas, didn’t buy a lot of prepared food, cooked at home and the like. Peggy : Something really cool being done today is that the stay-at-home Moms trade babysitting days so they can get some time off and give the kids a play day.

I grow my own garden in the summer instead of buying produce at the store; I make my own cleaning products to save money and be green; I make my own personal care products; I cook at home every night to avoid going out in order to save money and keep my health in check; I walk to and from work so I don’t have to pay for gas, etc.
