March 5, 2009 by jlpenner Leave a Comment

This is our second chapter about “Frugally Feeding Ferocious Carnivores” by Mashup Mom. If you want to read the first chapter click here. Most articles and blogs on eating more frugally emphasize the financial and health benefits of cutting back on meat and filling up instead on alternatives like beans or tofu — or suggest using meat as a flavoring, rather than as a main dish.

November 5, 2008 by jlpenner 3 Comments

Do you ever get tired of living frugally?

Can I get an Amen!! I will be honest, although I have always been a frugal person at heart and love a deal- I love shopping, I love decorating, I love fashion and being frugal all the time is hard.

It finally came to a place where {Read More}
