In some libraries, you can also have some good quiet time for yourself, or read a book with your child, all in peace. Some libraries even have board games or other games. Ours even has two computers to do homework or research and such, if you cannot do this at home.

That's a very cool family tradition!

I'm hungry. Can you send me some?

Time is strongly needed for that

And isn`t it wonderful to read books and enjoy them, books that you would never have been able to afford? Like really grand books about architecture, or art (you know, the so called coffee table books?) Or to binge read, say, 2-3 books over the holiday or the weekend, just for the sheer fun of it? Or the luxury of bringing back a book, after having read just a few pages and realizing you don`t like it, without having the feeling to read it out of a sense of duty.

Solid! That will last for centuries.

This might seem weird, but... Do Christians eat Deviled Eggs?

Nice

Only buy free range eggs, no matter how frugal you need to be.

Where is the banana for scale?

same thing with knowing any farmer lots of produce isn’t perfect but still edible and good I mean like misshapen apples and split carrots

I have 6 free range layer hens. I barter my eggs for services from my neighbors (landscaping, general handyman services, etc.)

Glad my mum has chooks

Beautiful!

That is one reason why I didn't finish my degree in funeral services. I'm not a sales person.

There are lots of frugal book lovers out there! I do this too, in our village (Germany) we have a weatherproof closet outdoors, where you can take books for free. You can also donate books. Volunteers exchange the assortment weekly and make sure that there are not too many or too few books in the cupboard. It is always worthwhile to stop by, sometimes you can find antiquarian books. Wonderful!

I thought the duck's neck was actually stretched like that as a toy.

Haha! Looks like a mini raft!

That’s lovely!

I wonder what they meant for the price to be?

Can anyone identify the vegetable pictured?

Oh my gosh I love it!

wow

How?

They do look great!

I've been using my colouring pages for wrapping paper recently

Fantastic use of wasted space! I ran a couple of those over my bathtub to get more indoor hanging space (above head height).

I like both the original and the new.

What a cute idea! ♥️

This is wonderful. Bananas are healthy (for most people) and make you satisfyingly full. They contain: Minerals such as potassium and magnesium, Trace elements. Vitamins, especially vitamin B6 and vitamin C. Carbohydrates (in the form of starch), which are converted into sugar during ripening. ... Dietary fiber such as cellulose, lignin and pectin. Also, you can always use a banana for scale :-)

Nobody: Minecraft: Noob vs Pro:

Anyone else look at that shine at her thumb twice?

Brilliant - I usually just make wax roses.

I store mine upside down. The little bit left can be easily reached after unscrewing the top - so no need to cut them open.

Good job! Now break out the marshmallows!!!!

I am currently using old underwear that doesn’t fit and socks with holes to dust and bring down cobwebs. I was just going to throw them out anyway, but now they have a purpose. I also use old dryer sheets for the same things.

May I call attention to the empty liquor bottle collection? As a homemade vanilla enthusiast, bravo!

If it works it works

Home-made jam is lovely, and you can use all sorts of fruit, but you can buy jam almost as cheaply as you can make it by the time you've bought sugar, pectin, utilities, even if you already have the jars.

Just make sure to change the water at least every other day or the onions get slimy inside.

Just do not use s****y apple devices altogether, problem solved.

I don't think most people are going out and buying new dryers just for fun. I'm happy for you, but you clearly got lucky.
