Do you need to pay off debt or fund your emergency savings account, or save for your summer vacation? How do you feel about big, crazy goals? Do they scare you or motivate you? Will you join me in April with a rather big, crazy goal of finding $500…in one month? Where, do you ask, […]

Two words…low and slow, when it comes to baking a delicious ham. A whole boneless smoked ham is more expensive, but there is no waste with fat or gristle and you’re not paying for a bone that you don’t need. This ham is already fully cooked, so essentially you are just heating it up, but […]

The products in the picture did NOT cost me a single penny. I got them all for FREE and NO I did not steal them. It is easy and you can do it too. I have mentioned before that I save an average of $5-$10 on coupons on our food per shopping trip. I don’t […]

A few years ago, we were driving along a highway and saw a big sign in front of a bank that was advertising a grand-opening event. From the road we could see tents, a moon bounce, and a lot of people. It wasn’t our bank, but the sign was inviting everyone in. The event had […]

Homemade brownies and ice cream is my husband’s all-time favorite dessert. I made these recently and I took this simple dessert up a notch by adding the homemade whipped cream. This brownie recipe is from my grandmother. I found it recently, although I had never made it before, but this is the brownie recipe that […]

“Where did you get your daughter’s shoes? The question from another mom caught me off guard as I was in the hallway of the YMCA getting my daughter ready for her dance class. For a split second I almost said, “Target”. For that is the brand of shoe that my daughter was wearing. But that […]

Eating organic food appeals to me on many levels. I don’t like the thought of all of the pesticides, synthetic hormones and antibiotics passing through to my family, especially my two young children. And have you ever eaten an organic, local, ripe strawberry?…heaven on earth. I have found that organic, local produce has such better […]

Chicken Corn Soup is a winter staple at our house. This hearty soup is super easy to pull together AND bonus, it freezes really well. I think this soup has PA Dutch origins since many fire halls and churches serve it during their fundraiser meals. Serve it with a side salad, homemade sugar-free applesauce […]

I like coupons, but I have resigned myself to the fact that I will never be the home manager who buys $200 worth of groceries for $4.35. I know there are many people out there that can do this, but it is not me. I usually average about $5-$10 in coupons on each weekly shopping […]

In the northeast, we endured a long, rough winter, unlike one we have seen in many years. So when the temperature hit 55+ degrees over the past few days, we got a little excited. The sunny skies, the light breeze, and the fresh air bring such relief that maybe old man winter has hit the […]
