Be Thrifty
This is a wonderful book, full of wisdom that our grandparents knew (and a few things we know already!). What I like best about this book is that it's not written from the perspective of scarcity (you don't have enough money so here's how to be thrifty); it is written from the perspective of enjoying what you have to the fullest (it's your money -- why not spend it on the things you most enjoy).
I am having fun with the opportunities for experimenting with housecleaning products and how to make things last a very long time. Dave is having great fun with the food portion of the book, and is currently stockpiling vegetable leftovers for the beginnings of a lovely soup stock!
The book is organized so it can be utilized again and again as a reference.
Tomorrow: Back to the Public Market -- woohoo!!! First time in 3 weeks. We'll see if I can get some photos this time.
