		<title>Meal Planning Motivation &#8211; I Need It!!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I find myself sitting here wondering what we’re going to have for dinner tonight. Why, you ask? Because for the past two weeks I have not done any sort of meal plan.

		<title>Saturday is Savings Day!!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week’s shopping trip was a huge success! I’m happy to be back shopping the deals, instead of just getting the bare minimum of what can get us by.

		<description><![CDATA[I know I haven’t updated this in a while. It’s been an awfully busy few weeks at our house! But that’s a story for another post…
We managed to stay on budget for our Eat From the Pantry Challenge this month, even the week we had company for dinner twice in one week!

		<title>Living Like No One Else, Part III</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my last installment, I explained how we converted our monthly expenses to a cash system. Now we’re to the really juicy part of our story – deciding to pay off all our credit cards in 2010!
We have a significant amount of debt that we accumulated in a relatively short time period. We traveled a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Week 2 down, on to Week 3!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So far it’s been so easy eating from the pantry that I’m tempted to do it again next month! It doesn’t hurt that last month I was able to freeze half of many of the meals I made, so I have a lot of ready made meals in the freezer. I have even been able [...]]]></description>

		<title>Becoming Organized &#8211; I&#8217;ve Been Inspired!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been reading on various blogs recently about home organization, and I have to tell you that I’m not the most organized person in the world.
