'When I was growing up, my ideas about money were limited. I figured the keys to financial success were: Get a good education. Get a good job. Buy a house, since it’s an investment. Save money in a bank account (or perhaps a company retirement plan). Work at said job for 30 or 40 years. Retire and work no more. Since then, I’ve changed my outlook a little bit.

'Lasagna is one of my favorite dinners. My family enjoys it too, so I make it once a month in the fall and winter. There is usually a crazy debate on who gets to eat the leftovers. Because I’m always looking to save time & money in the kitchen, I’ve learned a few tips over the years: 1. I use oven-ready lasagna, so pre-cooking the noodles is NOT necessary. 2.

' . . Have you ever thought about making homemade peanut butter ? I was standing in the natural foods aisle at my local grocery store the other day, bribing my children to behave themselves with some dried apricots. My older son looked at the peanut butter machine and asked what it was. I never really looked carefully at the machine before but after explaining how it worked and how it made peanut butter to my boys, I thought, why do people buy this stuff?

'I love that when I go to Chipotle and order a burrito I always know it’s going to cost me around $8. Maybe a little more with New York City prices, maybe a little less in a small midwestern town, but all in all, I know $8 is standard. What I also know is that if it comes out to significantly more than $8, something is off and I need to fix it. Unfortunately, not everything in life is as transparent and defined as the cost of Chipotle.

'As a child and young adult, I was a voracious reader. I ended every night by reading for at least 30 minutes. But then, in my 30s, I started a demanding job that consumed much of my time. Shortly after I had my first child. There was no time for reading (I thought). Only now, 10 years and 2 more kids later, am I able to resume my reading habit.

'As spring draws near, you’re probably already thinking about getting your home clean and re-organized. There’s something so cathartic about spring cleaning; Personally, I think it’s because we’ve been cooped up indoors and spring is our “rebirth”. But before you run to the store to load up on cleaning supplies—know this: you can make your own homemade cleaners using products that you probably already have in your pantry.
