At Home: Where will your food come from?
Continuing from my last video when I let you know I have given up my garden…….today I am talking about time as money. How much did I ‘earn’ by growing my own food? How will I now find the money to buy all the veggies I haven’t grown? A checks and balances hard look at where my time goes and where I need to make changes.
Please be kind and respectful when you share comments and opinions.

Beyond Frugal: What I do not buy & Ethical Shopping
One of the main reasons for making this video is NOT to try to persuade you to ditch the things you love……but to explain why my shopping bill is always so low. Please be kind and respectful when you share ideas and opinions.
Continuing from my small changes, big savings video I have done some more maths today regarding savings made by not purchasing certain items……it’s quite astonishing! Also my March purchases that were not food related……one of which introduces my ethical shopping.
Beyond Frugal: Small changes, big savings.
Today I’m chatting about a few little things that I do which save a LOT of money over time……some simple swaps for you to try…….and a new habit to put into practice. Today’s little things save me £100s of pounds every year!!

In the Kitchen: Goan Cauliflower Curry (reviewing a ‘Simply Cook’ kit).
I love curries and make them often……a great way to pack in loads of veg, use up odds and ends…..and they taste so good. Today I am making a cauliflower curry using the ‘free’ kit I got from ‘Simply Cook’. I can’t wait to give it a go!

TIY (Try It Yourself): Fabric stash & sewing jobs.
Today I am diving into my fabric stash……..a lot of them are earmarked for specific projects but I’m wondering if there are some pieces I can let go….. Oops, I’m getting distracted…..the whole reason for diving in today is because I need some fabric for a project to finish off the hall makeover…. I’m also demonstrating winding a bobbin on and threading the machine….as requested.
