If you are stopping by via Money Saving Mom, welcome! I am glad to have you here and hope you take some time to look around. Here are a few things I have to share:
As you could tell by my guest post, I love cooking, especially cooking meals ahead so I don’t have a stressful evening preparing our dinner. If you are interested in freezer cooking, I have a section devoted to that. Also, we are now a dairy-free and soy-free family as my daughter and I both have intolerances. If you do to, use the search bar to find some of our favorite dairy-free and soy-free recipes.
My husband and I have begun our journey to become debt free. We have a long road to go as we have to pay off student loans and credit card debt, but since we have become gazelle intense about 10 days ago, we have “found” over $600 to apply to our debt. I plan to document our journey to become debt free weekly. You can find our first summary here.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
For my regular readers, check out my guest post on Money Saving Mom, “How to Make Freezer Cooking Work When You Have a Busy Schedule.”

Good job and keep up the great work. My soon to be sister-in-law is gluten free. I hear it’s not an easy road, but definitely worthwhile!
Thanks Jon. It took some getting used to, but now we manage just fine. The only thing I really miss are stir fries!
That was a great post. I printed it. I have to get back to making money saving meals. It really frees up money in the budget.
It really does free up money, and it is so nice to have some nights when you can have home cooked food pulled straight from the freezer and save yourself a night of cooking!
Good luck on your debt reduction! We have been ganging up on our debt since January and are now down to our last credit card. It’s an awesome feeling.
And congratulations on achieving your goal to be a SAHM. I would love to get to that point, but we’ve got a ways to go before that’s a possiblity.
Congratulations on paying down the debt! How much have you paid off? With all of your hard work, you should be able to be a SAHM soon.
Hi Melissa. I did drop by via MSM. I love freezer cooking and your post reminded me again how much. I use The Complete Make a Mix Cookbook, Make Your Own Groceries, and Taste of Home’s Freezer Pleasers. Both of our freezers are stacked now. I’ll have to go read your journey on becoming debt free.
Thanks for visiting and for the resources. I will have to check those out!
