Frugality is Environmentally Responsible

Today's economy is rough.  Being more frugal is popular at the moment, as people are struggling to make ends meet.  Regardless of whether or not it is currently popular, every day frugality is better for the environment.  Buying unnecessary items or wasting resources creates more waste for our landfills and pollutes our environment.  Choose something that you can be more conservative with--such as gas for your car or setting the air condition a little warmer than normal.  What ever you choose, you will benefit your monthly budget as well as the Earth.  So a shorter post for today, but pick one thing to tackle and go for it!

We've been dealing with flooding rain, pinworms, pink eye, thrush and a newly diagnosed food intolerance for C. But, here I am again and am on to one of my favorite topics: the Farmer's Market. Although we live in a small town, we are fortunate enough to have a farmer's market. I love the farmer's market! It is environmentally responsible and frugal...and FUN! This time I picked up some baby potatoes, tomatoes, peas, and beans. Oh, and I bought a HUGE basket of...
