In my free time I enjoy canning and preserving food (well, I enjoy the results of it, ha!), baking, library storytimes, and being involved in our church’s Bible study, meals for the sick, and other various ministries. How long have you been reading The Frugal Girl? What’s your best frugal win?

For 20 or so years I’ve been homeschooling my kids, and am now down to about 1 1/2 (one full-time homeschooler, and one doing College Credit Plus with some support). I live in the Great Lakes region, in the same state where I was born. Is there anything unique about frugal living in your area?
