Frugality Tip from Margo

It’s holiday baking time!!!!! But not everyone has time, or the funds to make all the cookies. Host a cookie exchange, maybe do it with a potluck. Dinner and a variety of cookies for the price of one batch and one dish. Everyone brings a batch of cookies, and goes home with a variety. Super fun and saves you time and money. 

Happy baking y’all.

Operation Independence: Coffee Season, an Update

Main topic of the Show: Word of the Year

Today is the last new show of the year and as I wander off into a time of reflection, rejuvenation, and investment in my family relationships, it is also time to revel my word of the year.

What the word of the year is and why they are helpful

How it integrates with my3things

Past ones

  • Grow
  • Balance
  • Focus
  • Breakthrough

Quick summary of what I learned.

What I thought it would be DL

Words I considered.

HOW I GOT TO MY WORD

What I hope it will bring me

Sharper results

More of less

Steadier hand, communications, balance

Purge

The word:

When to start and wrap up,  you can, you can, you can

Make it a great week!

GUYS! Don’t forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.

One legend explaining the origin of pirogi claims that St. Hyacinth brought the dumpling from Kiev during a time of famine in the thirteenth century. So when a neighbor suggested pirogi for the Holiday table, it wasn’t a matter of “if” but of what to fill them with.

We hope you’ll take this recipe into your household and add comments to tell us all what fillings you’ve developed and loved.
