Let's Get Frugal ......

A few weeks ago I asked if anyone had any resolutions they would like to share, and a dear friend shared that she was resolving to put more "heart" into meal prep for her family and to find cheap ways to do it. What we here at the True Women blog are wondering is if any of you are interested in sharing with us and the other readers your ideas on putting more "heart" in your dinner times and what you are doing to cut costs in a time where it has become more essential for people in general to watch what they spend. By "heart", we mean, what motivates your prep times and meal planning. Maybe you can share any little touches to the dinner table to add a bit of specialness, or little dinner time traditions such as using it as a time to ask questions and demonstrating what true fellowship looks like to the kids, or perhaps that is when you do family worship, or when you give gifts to your spouse, or whatever little ritual you do that makes dinner a little more than ho-hum. Sharing recipes that are economical and tasty are definitely welcome as are of course any other money saving tips. Please just put them in the comments section of the blog. We also have the privilege of having a very dear friend of ours who we know to be very gifted in frugality to give us some help on this subject. Please be on the look out for her post this week. We are looking forward to your participation.
