Laurie, here is the link to the site. I'm sorry--meant to do that yesterday.

She has a lot of cute craft and frugal ideas as well.
Quite possible I spend too much time on the computer. lol
Sue, thank you so much. Truly, if I could figure out a way, I would try to send you some stuff. It really has been a cool summer this year in most places. So odd. I hope that your frost holds off fora little longer. I wouldn't be surprised if it was early here, too. When we lived in NY, we planted a special type of early growing tomatoes, but still they didn't always ripen on time with the very short summers. I think they were called Early Birds? They do take a lot less time to ripen than normal tomatoes.
Anna, hugs to you, sweetie. I know how much your dogs mean to you. It will all work itself out. It sounds like your dh is needed where he's at. And I am so hungry right now I could just eat your candles...okay, maybe not.
Charlotte, the IT field does seem to be getting hard. I will be praying for you and that your dh finds a good job very soon.
Jean, how are you doing? Thinking of you!
Love your creative ideas, Denahowy! Hope your dd has a very Happy Birthday.
Ugh, Connie, that could have been a major disaster. Glad you feel better. Do you have any kind of filter for your water?
Glad you feel better, Amy!
Oh, Mish, I'm sorry about the fridge. What a pain. I hope you were able to save a lot. Cheese will do okay for a few days unrefrigerated. Sounds like you did great on your test!
Frugal today so far has been no a/c--yay! I made a quiche for dinner since the navy bean and bacon soup needs more time to cook. So, I guess that will be tomorrow's dinner. Made some easy snacks--spiced pecans and trail mixes. Dh's favorite things to take to work. Since he is always so busy, he usually eats those for lunch. Still need to make a salad and some breakfast cookies. Other than that, just enjoying the beautiful weather.
Take care dear friends, and have a blessed day!
Jamie.
