Many people have emailed to ask how my year of frugal is going. It's going very well!!! Other than the
ikea indiscretion (I didn't actually buy anything, but Mr. B did)..... This week I had to buy 5 small containers at the Dollar Store for my classroom and I felt terribly guilty. But we made counters that involved small black beans, and the beans keep falling through the holes in the baskets that I have. So, to avoid having the caretaker actually kill me, I invested a few dollars in containers. But that was for school.... not for me. I bought a sweater and a bunch of silk ties at a thrift shop a few weeks ago too. I have performed surgery on the sweater (I love it, I should show it to you! , and the silk ties were a gift for my dear friend Meep.
This is what I'm coveting today! Last night for Earth Hour we lit candles. I had an unopened Yankee Candle votive so I put it in the bathroom. Oh, heavenly! Pineapple Cilantro. Yum! There is some coconut in there too. Reminds me of summer..... Aaaaahhhhh, summer......

You are definitely my hero on your quest to be frugal. In fact, more of an inspiration than anything. xo
Good job staying on the frugal wagon. My husband has run us so far off the frugal tracks this month that we've paved our own path to consumerism. "bitter...crabby...me??!" Whatever you gave you that idea.?
Good for you and staying frugal - np way do containers for school count against frugality. I want to see what you did with the sweater.
