Seems like both my to do and to read list are getting longer each day. Part of my dilemma is my e-mail in box is filling up with information about books on budget cooking and living. And not to mention people e-mailing me about sites that can help you save money. The good news is I’m checking them out and as I get to each one, if I think they’re worthwhile, I’m be telling you more about them. And even interviewing the authors who hopefully will share more tips with us.

I’m happy to say I’m working on The Budget Smart Girl Newsletter and hope to have that ready by the end of the week…just a few days late! I hope you’ll find it was worth the wait. As many of you have contacted me to say how much you enjoy the food related articles, this newsletter is food focused. There are some great recipes. I tested one of them this past weekend and happy to say only about ¼ cup of it remains in the fridge. There’s an article on putting together on a great but cheap Halloween bash. Yes, it’s almost that time of the year. Plus, lots of other good stuff.

Have a good week.
