How We’re Saving Money On Water Even Though We Live in the Desert

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

NOVEMBER 9, 2014

Landscape with plants that have a low water requirement. Whenever there is a chance of rain, we set out all the miscellaneous tubs and containers we can find to collect the rain water and then we use it throughout the next several weeks. Plant our garden where it receives some shade. Collect rainwater. How do you conserve water?

Family Balance Sheet

AUGUST 6, 2022

Homemade Basil and Walnut Pesto: I made my second batch of homemade pesto from my two garden basil plants. I allocated cash every month to the non-fixed categories like groceries, restaurants, clothing, and miscellaneous and stuck to the allocation. To save time during the week, I make the salad and chop the fruit on Sunday nights.
