No Spending Challenge: Websites that help!

I wanted to share some websites that are definite budget helpers! The No Spending Challenge for January is just the start for our family (and maybe yours too). In order to keep me and my family "in check" I seek out the support of others.

Not to overwhelm you too much here are a couple of websites that I have found to be inspiring and helpful:

Stacy Makes Cents: Her tips for living on less are great. Getting out of debt and more! This particular post is very inspirational. Where Stacy talks about living debt free, being content and finding joy in simple things and building a vision. You can sign up for her newsletters, which are FREE and full of great info.

Motherhood on a Dime: saving money, home management and living well on less are the focus of this blog. She has a TON of great FREE resources and also has a FREE newsletter that comes right to your email. Now I will warn you she posts great "deals" out there from some of the deal sites I encouraged you to "Unsubscribe" to. So you must have a strong will not to click on those 8) She has great coupons you can print off also for food items.

Until next time - be blessed and live on less!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
