Last Week's Frugal Accomplishments
The sofa table is our most recent custom order from my etsy SoulSeeds shop. This one shipped today, and is on its way to Wisconsin. I have been inspired by The Prudent Homemaker blog, and the comments that are written. So, this week I'm joining in with her usual Monday post. Her blog is one of those I always find a treat to visit. I hope it inspires you too!

Freezing corn & peppers from the garden, patty pan squash from a neighbor, and lambs quarter, which grows wild here

Harvesting and eating squash, tomato, potatoes, basil, rosemary and garlic from the garden
