I know it isn’t even Halloween yet, but truly, for the frugal at heart it is time to start thinking about Christmas! Yes-I know. I hate rushing the season as well. . . but if you want to stretch your dollars and figure out how to fit all your Christmas plans into your budget, then… Keep Reading
Layaway is Back at Walmart!
Personally I hate to rush the holiday season-I really enjoy taking each one as it comes and savoring it rather than rushing through to be on to the next. But when you’ve got a budget to think about and a family to craft, DIY and shop for it actually is NOT too early to start… Keep Reading
Review: Mrs Meyers
A few weeks ago Walmart sent me some of the Mrs Meyers Clean Day Aromatherepeudic products to try. I’ve used Mrs Meyers hand soap before–I really enjoy the lovely scents and the fact that all their products are earth friendly as well: FOR GENERATIONS we’ve had to put up with harsh chemical smells to get… Keep Reading

Walmart Challenge: Strawberry Cream S’mores
Who doesn’t like S’mores? Hot gooey marshmallows. Melting chocolate. The crunch of a graham cracker. Mmmmm. Walmart asked me to make and photograph a creative interpretation of the classic s’mores recipe. The field was wide open. I decided I had to do something fun. Something different. Something pin-able 😉 Now I’m quite familiar with all… Keep Reading
Making Lunches Fun for Back to School
Packing lunches for the kids is something I really enjoy doing. Well, ok, at 6:30 in the morning when I’m actually doing it I don’t know that I would say that I’m having a fun time. But I enjoy knowing exactly what is in the kiddos lunch. I like having control over the quality of… Keep Reading
