I like food coloring better than the dye kits myself. I don't know about you but a package of food coloring lasts me forever. Keep up the great work!!Thrifty Mom In Boisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503584246610396717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6965390616423292590.post-49528206655495090532014-04-21T09:30:18.180-06:002014-04-21T09:30:18.180-06:00Way to save the curtain rod! You are very clever ...Way to save the curtain rod! You are very clever to have used a pen- I think I'm gonna call you MacGuyver from now on- haha! :)<br />That was really nice of your friend to give you the laundry detergent. :)<br />Last week I hung laundry outside to dry, made all our own meals, stayed out of the grocery stores for the most part (until this morning), watered down the laundry detergent, dish detergent, and a couple of other things.<br />I used less gas than usual this last month cause I have been combining more errands than usual. <br />My husband made the kids a swing set in the backyard. We bought 2 swings and used wood we already had. We had found a slide last year that someone was giving away on the side of the road so we cleaned it off and attached it to an old pool ladder (also picked up for free from the side of the road) so now they have a slide too. It's like being at the park except we don't have to leave the backyard!<br />On Friday I colored Easter eggs with the kids using crayons and a coloring kit that I got last year after Easter for 25 cents. We were jipped out of the color blue in the kit so I used food coloring which worked just as well if not better than the kit colors. Next year I am gonna skip the kit altogether and just use food coloring that we have on hand.<br />This morning I went through the chest freezer and pantry/cupboard to see what we have let in there- still have plenty of stuff to make meals out of.<br />There were probably other thrifty things I did, but I cant think of them right now. :)Dawn- Blessed Beyond Measurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18380049127079259624noreply@blogger.com
