Nordic modern country style, design, interiors and the good life in my Scandinavian Doll House. Saturday, 31 March 2012. Gremlins have been tinkering with. Impishly moving things around. Texts and pictures disappeared and just as mysteriously, reappeared in haphazard places. When it no longer seemed possible to hold the. In place and a crash. Seemed inevitable I was ready to bail out. However, patience has its rewards and I am back online. Anna at the Doll House. 31 March 2012 at 12:31. I hope you stay!

So, for me, the perfect Advent flowers are. The very red, attention-seeking amaryllis and. Which is hot, spiced wine.

Frugal Scholar: Why Keep Working?
http://frugalscholar.blogspot.com/2015/07/why-keep-working.html
Lessons from a lifetime of frugality. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. The Great Recession knocked down the stock portion of my retirement accounts by almost 50% and led to the firing of the three tenured French teachers.

Many seem to be or have been highly paid folks in IT, engineering, and so on. Some even had a stock option windfal...Then,...

Lessons from a lifetime of frugality. Tuesday, August 26, 2014. Potato Corn Chowder with a dash of nostalgia. Oh, how I needed some potatoes, my comfort food of choice.

As expected too goopy (flour? With various things I didn't have. Here's what I did: threw some frozen caramelized onions. And a can of drained corn. Served wi...

Frugal Scholar: I Heart Baby Wipes for the Traveler (and Duct Tape)
http://frugalscholar.blogspot.com/2015/06/i-heart-baby-wipes-for-traveler-and.html
Lessons from a lifetime of frugality. Monday, June 29, 2015. I Heart Baby Wipes for the Traveler (and Duct Tape). Does everyone already know this? I only thought of this last summer. Our first purchase in Paris (after some food, of course) will be BABY WIPES! Carry a few in a ziplock to wipe your sweaty brow, the back of your neck, and- MY FAVORITE- your sweaty feet. They are amazingly restorative. Mr FS wraps some around a pencil. What can I say? He is a genius. June 29, 2015 at 8:22 PM. Back when I had...
