Can you believe it? Less than a week til the end of October. The weather this week has been pretty mild: up into the mid to high 60’s in the day time, which means we’ve been able to keep heating bills pretty low. Thank you, Jesus, for small favors. 🙂 My October challenge has met …
So, I was perusing through James’ Retirement Savvy blog a couple of weeks ago, and found out that he had just published a book called Cream City Hustle . How cool is that? Now, I’m not generally a fan of, or do I ever, read fiction. I’m just a non-fiction girl: we must always be …

Happy Saturday, my frugal homesteading friends!!! The Farmer’s Almanac tells us we’re due for another Polar Vortex hell of a winter again, so here at the Frugal Farmer homestead, we’re busily planning what we can do this winter to stay warm and not go broke. 🙂 Winter in the country, at least here in the …
Hey, friends! As we wade through what’s left of the produce to can and freeze, I thought I’d take a minute out and share with you the new Smoky Chipotle Salsa recipe we tried this year that has gotten rave reviews so far. Last year when we did our first salsa canning, we used our …
