Freaky Frugalite

OK, I’m selling out. I added a Facebook “Like” button to the blog! OK OK OK!! It will be at the bottom of every post. :hmph: So now I can’t be accused of showing partiality to *only* the Twitter followers! :shades: Here’s hoping I get some Likes that propel me to certain glittering fame and [...]

I just read this post written by an amazing young woman. I am honored that the writer is my beautiful daughter, so I am doubly-blessed. If you are a young person or know of one, who is struggling with questions of why you are here and is God real, and what is life all about? [...]

Woohoo! Another week begins! I like Monday, but I always seems to get a late start (I work at home, and the kids are homeschooled). I don’t know why I do this meme so late- sorry, gals! I should do it on Sunday nights, but I am always so tired then! Well, anyway, this weeks [...]

OMG this is SO funny! I love the “Chuck Norris Sweat” mandle. Ladies, what would you get for your man? Men, what is your favorite? And seeing that tomorrow is Sunday, here’s a tutorial video on How To Fit in At Church. Hat tip Renee at AGlimpseofBeautiful.com for the video! LOL

There are a number of giveaways ending soon. I actually can’t believe the sheer NUMBER of giveaways that bloggers are having lately. I personally don’t like hosting giveaways.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Avocados from Mexico. All opinions are 100% mine. These days, everyone is shortening words. So “guac” stands for “guacamole.” Believe it or not, I have tasted guacamole only once, a teeny-tiny bit. It was OK. I guess I never found any use for avocados [...]

Outrageous! This constitutes discrimination and encourages violence toward mailmen! Look what litter we found floating around in our yard: My husband was emotionally scarred after seeing this. He is a mailman, and he has had his share of close encounters with monster dogs. He could tell you some stories, Cujo-style, I tell ya. He’s worn [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine. I know! I know! I’ve been putting it off for several years! Yesterday, I promised my kids that we WILL go on a vacation this year. We WILL. I must make sure I keep this promise. [...]

Short version: I LOVE IT. Long version: …read on… While we worked on our kitchen renovation over the summer, I wanted to create a small space for a “media center.” Even if it was just a small bookshelf, I wanted to make a dedicated area for an iPod/mp3 dock. Our previous little CD player was [...]

I cannot believe how fast Walmart and P&G have been rolling out the movies. When they heard that moms were clamoring for wholesome, family-friendly movies for their families, Walmart and P&G released “Secrets of the Mountain.” It is an excellent movie, and we own the DVD- we watch it all the time! Shortly after the [...]
