It never occurred to me to ask Mom or Mom-in-law to come watch my kids. Seeing the joy of discovery on a child’s face or watching them learn a new skill or develop a new talent is just plain fun, no matter the cost in money or time. Expectations of our children. We raised our children to expect more involvement.

If we stopped at 7-Eleven or picked up fast food, he’d take that notebook out and write down what was spent before driving away. I watched him do this every day of my life.

Somehow, I was watching a video of Korean YouTuber Maangchi making something she called a frugal Korean dish, which made me think that I probably should look for more frugal recipes to save money on expensive ingredients. And eating out wasn’t the exception for me then. We don’t eat out often, but I like to cook.

Limiting waste is what really drives most of the habits I have that would qualify as “frugal” – reducing/eliminating food waste, returning unneeded items, pursuing refunds, checking on warranties, repairing things, etc. For me, being in the kitchen and making food for people is an act of love. Eat at grocery stores!

So whether that’s hiking across the beautiful Sussex Downs, growing my own vegetables or taking my binoculars out for a spot of bird watching I rarely spend much time indoors. Over the last few years I’d watched uneasily as my monthly payments ballooned. Could I knock $20 off my grocery shopping somehow?
