I think keeping a list is somewhat similar to a gratitude journal. Makes us realize what are lives are really about.

I too love the Pioneer Woman, and her recipes are always down-home good! I also enjoy checking out books at the library as that is a great saver on money too. So happy to have met you, and I am wondering if we are not too far from each other... where we live in Idaho borders eastern Washington! Have a great day :) Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-37356699811313442362016-02-01T11:22:39.302-08:002016-02-01T11:22:39.302-08:00LOL Mrs B, my husband agrees with you on never cut...LOL Mrs B, my husband agrees with you on never cutting back on butter, bacon grease or cream. ;) I have to be sneaky in doing so.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-83089480762050763462016-02-01T05:49:08.193-08:002016-02-01T05:49:08.193-08:00Good Morning Debbie,

My cell phone is a very old flip type pre-paid phone. Since I only use it when away from home, (we don't get cell service at our house) it cost me only $5 per month.<br />I too enjoy Ree Drummond's Pioneer Woman Cooks. Her recipes are comforting and many are very traditional to Oklahoma type cuisine, which is satisfying to Mr.B who is originally from Oklahoma. However, since I am from the south, I NEVER cut back on the butter, or the bacon grease, or the cream, or the ...<br /><br />Blessings to you and yours,<br />Mrs.BMrs. B, a very peculiar personhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03579160731517930694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-56858179924485017942016-01-31T13:38:03.615-08:002016-01-31T13:38:03.615-08:00Yes she does!Yes she does!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-47787638462259197162016-01-31T11:43:41.074-08:002016-01-31T11:43:41.074-08:00I enjoy Pioneer Woman as well.

I am hoping for more snow since we have the grandkids coming to spend the night tonight while their parents go skiing tomorrow and then we have the youngest one coming again for some special time next weekend again. :) I want to take them sledding and then come home to hot cocoa and cookies followed by hot tubbing. :)Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16449564619872452771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2283658887503348180.post-26008757752890082262016-01-30T05:14:49.409-08:002016-01-30T05:14:49.409-08:00That soup looks delicious.

We have friends that slipped and slid over here to western Oregon yesterday and they got significant snow and very cold temps there. So, if you got what they got, I'll bet that soup hit the spot.<br /><br />I enjoyed reading your money saving tips and some of your back posts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
