Possibly a side trip later today. I seem to do more dropoffs at Goodwill than shopping, but maybe need to change that. Possibly a side trip later today.

Everyone brought a goody and/ or bottle of wine to share. We had such a feast without any ONE family going broke - we gathered to glorify God and found that God is not having a recession!

Since then I have always had a garden, learned to simplify, shop discount stores where yes I always had to bag my own groceries, used clothing stores, garage sales, Goodwill, creativity...I always said my home decorating style was Early Yard Sale:) Gleaning was also a great thing to do. We could as a family collect free food, and share half of it with our local food bank. I must say in regards to my last child leaving the nest now, it was all worth it. I would not have given up those years with my children for anything this world has to offer. I still hunt the bargins...a registered Starbucks card: you get free soy, free flavors, and free refills on drip coffee in house.

We are still in a cold snap around here so I am waiting to start the garden. We are doing everything we can to cut back right now too. We are getting ready to start our busy season with all the kids in sports so I just turned off our satellite! The company lets you keep using your dvr (and all the recordings), and watch the 3 free channels it has every month for $10. You can do that for 6 months at a time and I didn't even know about it except that I called them and asked! When football season starts we will probably turn the satellite back on in September. The kids record some cartoons they like and watch those when they have time. It saves quite a bit for us on that luxury. (we have to have satellite because we live in a rural area if we want cable at all) LOVE your blog!! Your grass is so green!

We do some of that, but not all of it. I am always looking for ways to save money on groceries. Cooked a roast last week & we ate 3 meals off it for a little over $8, so those kinds of savings add up. You can certainly eat for less at home. Happy St. Paddys!
