I have posted the link to the recipes in the sidebar, but you can visit her blog at http://www.mamakalila.blogspot.com/. I enjoyed my visit [...]

I have some great ideas that I am working on for this blog. You will not be disappointed when I am finished working them out.
I just wanted to give you all a heads up, and let you know that I am still in the planning process, and I am still working on content for this [...]
Free Cell Phone for Low-Income People

If you live in one of the states below, you may qualify. I do not, though I can see where a cell phone would come in handy. I have a TracPhone myself, but keep relatively few units on it. I use it for:
* Business: The daycare children’s parents can call me when they are out [...]

I just love my garden. The lettuce, tomatoes and peas are doing so well that we were able to use them to round out our dinner last night. The recipe has been posted to the Frugal Recipes blog and is called Yesterdays’ Garden Salad.
Enjoy!

They moved yesterday morning, and I ended up earning some money (Though I hadn’t done the work for that reason. I just wanted to help.) and receiving [...]
Homemade Baby Wipes
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Baby wipes, frugal, homemade, naturalbirthandbabycare.com, paper towels, recipes, wash cloths on Thursday, February 7, 2008 | 2 Comments »
NaturalBirthand BabyCare.comgives you a few different recipes for homemade baby wipes. Visit the site today.
I have another suggestion, though. Why not use baby wash cloths rather than paper towels. It will make the baby wipes more frugal in the long run, as well as be better environmentally speaking.
