New Site Design!
Some highlights:
New Navigation at the top of the site.
New photos throughout the site.
Menus and Recipes are now two different pages. The menus have lots of new changes to reflect how our family of 8 eats for .40 per person per day (under $100 a month for 8 people).
The recipes and my pantry list are now printable! Click the printer icon in the top right-hand corner on those pages.
There is a new page called Frugal Living. Under that you'll find all of my articles on frugality.
There is a search button in the right-hand column on every page. You're welcome!
Shoping Wisely and Saving Money are now two separate pages under Frugal Living.
The Frugal Gifts page and the Sewing For Less page have been reorganized to make it easier to find projects.
There is a new Recipe Index page at the bottom on the list of Recipes, under the Recipe tab.
