Family Balance Sheet

APRIL 24, 2015

I am getting better at putting leftovers in the freezer if we don’t eat them before they go bad. This Week’s Dinners: Saturday: We had my parents and grandmother over for dinner and I made Pioneer Women’s Chicken Parmigiana, garden salad, steamed broccoli, and my tasty (but cheap) garlic bread.

The Frugal Girl

JANUARY 22, 2024

And I am more conscious of eating leftovers and avoiding food waste. My mother grew up on a farm, and from her accounts my grandmother and grandfather (who also was a foreman at the local glass factory, along with being an independent farmer) were frugal, and sometimes times were tight. How has reading the Frugal Girl changed you?

Coupons Do Work

APRIL 14, 2015

My daughter does competitive cheerleading and that itself is $3K a year (not including travel). All I had to do was what my grandmother had taught me. I stocked up on several sizes for the next 2-3 years… for my daughter, last Sept, Crazy 8 had a coupon and a sale on summer clothes. They were the leftovers.

Nicoles Nickels

NOVEMBER 22, 2012

I’m pretty sure I always sang it as Grandmother’s house, which is weird since we actually went to my Grandfather’s house for holidays. The day starts/started with my mother or me or now my daughter getting up and stuffing the bird and getting it into the oven. Then my daughter required mashed potatoes.
