A German-American Thanksgiving
By xintexas
Many immigrants from different countries that arrive in America make Thanksgiving festivities to fit in with their own cultures. I think that is wonderful. We are free in this country to celebrate Thanksgiving any way that is special to each of us.
Washington State Red Delicious Apple
By likekinds
If my memory serves me correctly, I read that Stark Nurseries held a competition around 1891 at the county fair for the best apple. The 'Hawkeye' apple, as it was called by a contestant, Jesse Hiatt, was entered. We almost didn't get that apple.

I made baked coconut shrimp as a mid-day snack and this is definitely a healthier alternative to frying. Not to mention you can make this baked coconut shrimp right in your toaster oven fairly quickly. You can fit probably a dozen large shrimps in a toaster oven.
Button and Seed Bead Earrings or Pendant
By ShirleyE
This is a tiny delicate piece of jewellery that looks very pretty either as earrings or on a fine chain as a necklace. Make a full set for a gift for an older child. In fact it really is so simple to make that a child of maybe 10 or 11 years old who loves crafty stuff would be able to make a set.

Living a frugal lifestyle is not easy. It takes a lot of dedication to make it work. The best thing I did to promote my frugal lifestyle was learn to cook. If you learn to cook you can have delicious meals with leftovers for the next day for the same cost or lower than buying one hamburger.
