I'm interested in trying again, especially the basics that are hard to mess up.<br /><br />God has really convicted me lately that we (especially me as the main spender) are not being good stewards of what He has given us. I'm on a mission to re-frugalize and re-evaluate and re-budget. Today, in the spirit of trying to be frugal, I subscribed to our local newspaper that has coupons. I'm only doing Sundays at $12 per month (cheaper than buying it week-by-week) and I'll evaluate after 3 months if it's worth my cost. I'd like to double my savings to make it worth the buy.<br /><br />I always find such inspiration here at the Blue House Journal from you Terri! Your menus are always basic but so tasty sounding and creative! I can't wait to see what this new leaf being turned looks like in my life! Thanks for the continual inspiration.Karlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07251936768042830801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-69660739116270577362013-04-02T13:47:05.255-04:002013-04-02T13:47:05.255-04:00I am with you on this back to basics.

Somethings we love, some we like well enough and some I'll never buy again.<br /><br />Back to Basics sounds like a good challenge.<br /><br />Can you believe how warm it is already. I had the AC on yesterday and today - I don't do well in the heat. I was hoping for at least a month where I didn't have to have the heat or AC on.Manuela@A Cultivated Nesthttp://www.acultivatednest.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6959918163454225829.post-91283153857681592602013-04-01T13:14:20.509-04:002013-04-01T13:14:20.509-04:00Hi Terri,
