review 1: Wonderful book by a great local "mom blogger!" How fun to pick up a book at the library with some familiar faces on the cover :)Loved the recipes and the great ideas for creating frugal yet memorable times with your kids and family. There are useful tips for streamlining your household chores, cooking, etc so that you can have time to enjoy doing things that you love. I liked the general theme of being thankful for what you have.
review 2: Nothing huge and new on the frugality front, but a good over view of the basics, along with some fun family and party ideas, and 74 pages of recipes. First chapter or so, I was thinking this book would be great for families who've never really budgeted, but that it'd end up all review for me. I don't mind review, especially
... moresince our culture argues so hard against the frugal approach, so that was fine for a library book.In the end, there were some ideas that were new to me or that I'd forgotten, mostly ideas for family celebrations rather than living cheap, and a reminder that I was going to get serious about getting rid of the land line and hadn't yet. But if you've read much on the frugality front, more inspiration than information here. less
