One Hundred Dollars a Month

I am your typical housewife living in high maintenance suburbia. I have a handsome husband, 2 kids and a flock of pet chickens. I try and feed my family with $100 a month. With the help of coupons, gardening and bartering I am able to squeeze the most out of our grocery budget and still manage to have a little fun along the way.

Gardening books hold kind of a special place in my heart. I wouldn’t be the gardener I am today {or maybe not a gardener at all} if it weren’t for a few gardening books I picked up years ago. I spent almost the entire winter of 2008/2009 reading up on gardening. I found some incredible reads that taught me so much and made me realize how much I didn’t know. So I’ve never stopped reading gardening books.

Here are just a few of my favorites, although if we’re being honest, narrowing this list down was virtually impossible. Gardening books are right up there with the bible {okay, not quite, but you get the idea!}.

My Favorite Garden Books:

Quote of the Day “The flame that burns twice as bright burns half as long.” Lao-tzu

Guess who I caught yesterday in Monkey Boy’s room with her head in a Cheetos bag? Yep. You guessed it, Lucy the trouble Puggle. I think she was a little mad at me for taking the bag away too. Ha! Poor puggles.

Partly cloudy skies and a high of 75 is in the forecast for today. What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods? I’d love to know.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone, stay out of trouble. 😉

Quote of the Day “Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability.” Sam Keen

Hello Thursday!

Yesterday we took Lucy for a walk downtown around the harbor and I think we wore her out because she spent the rest of the afternoon lounging around in her chair. She LOVES her car rides and adventures but man, they sure make her sleepy.

Have a great day everyone, it’s supposed to be a high of 70 degrees today here in the PNW and I couldn’t be happier!

Quote of the Day “I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past. ~ Thomas Jefferson

Hello Wednesday! Lucy the puggle princess found an amazing scent in someone’s yard yesterday while we were out on a walk and just had to make sure she went home with a little bit on her. 😉
