frugal

Frugally minded mamas have probably already heard about making your own laundry detergent. Supposedly it can save you tons of money and might even be a fun activity. I have always been a little bit intimidated though. (I wonder why - how hard can it be to mess it up? And so what? If it's that cheap just throw it out and start over! But I digress...) One of my favorite personal finance/frugality websites recently made a how-to video. Something about watching the process has made it a lot less scary, and I think I might do this soon. Check it out; maybe you will be inspired to try it too.

I am a Christian, wife to Norm and mother to three: Glen (5), Tasha (3), and an unknown little one due in July. It was an honor to be asked to work with Corrrine and the other ladies in the Pinkpeas family. I believe Pinkpeas is just the right home for some of my many interests. We are a homebirthing/waterbirthing family. I am a La Leche League Leader. I started and continue to run Vegaroos, the only babywearing group in Las Vegas. I am interested in natural family planning (NFP) and am working on becoming an NFP instructor.
