A Confession: Times, they are changing
| May 16, 2012 | Posted by under General Content & Rants |
Spring. Things are changing around me like crazy. Seems like these days, everyone is starting a new life and leaving an old one. It has been almost 10 years since the first Frugal Vegan zine made its debut on the indie zine-scene. I never anticipated this zine to catapult me to where I am now,…

| May 14, 2012 | Food Recipes |
Guess what? I finally got my local asparagus on the weekend! Woohoo! Better late than never right? Sadly, I paid $4.50 for a bunch but thankfully, they are large and scrumptious. I’m hoping they will come down in price at the farmer’s market but if not, I don’t care. I love asparagus and I will…

I can’t believe I haven’t posted in a week! Honestly, I had no idea it had been that long and I apologize for that. Truth is, I have been trying to do more things and spend less time being introverted while sitting in front of my computer. I actually leave it home most of the…

It’s recipe time again! Yes, I finally ended up baking two batches of muffins today. Here’s the thing: My partner is not having a great time at work these days. As you know, we were supposed to be moved by now but all sorts of things are going on at head office and I guess…

1. Eco Schick Razors – These are made from recycled hangers! I didn’t think I’d be able to give up my Venus Razor for these, but I was impressed. The aloe & vitamin E strip really does really soften the skin, so when I am too lazy to put on shaving cream or soap I…

I finally looked over my expenses for April. If you remember, I started tracking ALL my expenses as of April 1st. I did it with Open Office (Spread Sheet) last month. This month, I am using an App called BACK IN BLACK for my IPhone which is amazing and so easy to use! Only $2.99…
Make or Save Extra Cash with Roomarama!
| May 1, 2012 | Posted by under Easy Ways to Make extra money, Travel |
Guess what? I found another Airbnb type company called Roomarama! It is similar to Airbnb. I’ve read that some people on Airbnb also list on Roomarama so I decided to bite the bullet and list the room on here as well. I have to wait for everything to be approved before my room will show…
The Many Uses for Soap Nuts

I finally bought some soap nuts for my laundry and noticed that you can also use them for your dishes! All you have to do is place 6 soap nuts in the muslin bag provided (usually you get some when you buy) and place the bag in the cutlery tray in your dishwasher. When you’re…
Upcycling Cereal Bags with TerraCycle
| April 27, 2012 | Posted by under Green Living |
I recently purchased some Sally’s Cereal for the Airbnb guests. I like the fact that the cereal is stored solely in a bag, not accompanied by a box. These cereals are free of artificial ingredients AND they are very affordable. After the bag was empty, I was reading it to find out if the bag…
