Don't feel bad about it at all! <br />Saving time and energy and frustration is worth it for sure.<br />Father God, I pray that you will bring life, and health and healing in Jesus' name.<br /><br />Congratulations on the clothes. Did you know that if you roll the clothes up good and tight, you can get more in a bag?

We do many frugal things on a regular basis, BUT right now w/ a daughter w/ long term sickness (8 months so far!!!), I have started getting quite comfortable with using paper plates at times. Yes, I have felt guilty about it, but that is getting better. :) It is a not frugal thing, but we are in survival mode and this mom is really getting tired... and Gentle Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11625746235099531114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659572515687798778.post-58206192406061896552017-04-24T09:54:40.307-05:002017-04-24T09:54:40.307-05:00Thanks Deb!

This week, we had leftover rice and beans, which I turned into a fun nacho-style casserole. I put crushed chips on the bottom, mixed in sour cream and salsa with the rice and beans, and spread cheese on top and baked. Topped with pico de gallo, it was amazing! <br /><br />I have not had any luck with swagbucks, I found it Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4659572515687798778.post-5982170641563629122017-04-23T16:41:07.042-05:002017-04-23T16:41:07.042-05:00You are so much thriftier than I am Annie.
