I asked my sixteen year-old daughter to scroll through the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and share her favorites with you. She then proceeded to find almost 30 items. She was supposed to provide some commentary as well which resulted in a lot of "super trendy and cute" and "great for back-to-school" as if she's ever going back to school. I'm convinced my children will live the rest of their lives in my living room. I'll spare you her three word, copied-and-pasted narrative and just tell you what I think of her selections. She was largely unimpressed with the selection of tops (as I have historically been), but she did find every pair of Keep Reading

Is a Vitamix or a Blendtec Worth the Investment?
Here in the Pacific Northwest, Harvest is a sprint. We don’t have the luxury of slowly rolling in produce from April to October, like our Southern neighbors. Here we line up at the starting line around early June, wait for the gunshot alerting us of Strawberry season, then go hard through the berries—Blue, Rasp, Boysen, Sylvan, Marion—catching our breath long enough to lug home peaches before hitting the blackberry bushes and finally army-crawling across the finish line with apples and pears galore. We then rest all winter long, happy with our freezers full, hibernating until we have the energy to do it again. Yes, it’s a lot of work, but it’s Keep Reading
10 foods you can freeze to save time and money!
Freezer Friendly Foods Looking for ways to stretch your grocery dollar? Me too. One of my goals this year is to beef up my freezing skills so I can preserve the awesomeness of this season's produce. For instance, I spent a few hours last month baking pear vanilla muffins with my big box of Bartlett pears I got for less than 50¢ a pound for snacks and lunches. Not only did I make delicious food that contained ingredients I could understand, but I saved a ton of money from buying pre-packaged snacks in the store and time during lunch-packing time. Here are ten foods you can freeze to save money and time right now! Shredded cheese -- This is my Keep Reading
5 Tips to Help You Buy and Sell on craigslist
One of the best avenues available to buy used is craigslist (spelled intentionally with a lower-case "c"). For those of you who don’t know, craiglist is a no-frills classified advertisement website organized by location where people can post items they have for sale and browse through listings for everything from jobs to housing to lawn mowers. When my husband and I have something we need to buy, sell, or take to the dump, craigslist is the first place we turn. We buy things, we sell things, and we have given things away for free that we otherwise would have had to pay to dispose of. Wheeling and dealing on craigslist has reinforced the concept Keep Reading
