You will notice that on the right side of the page, there is some advertising. I placed these in myself and chose ONLY companies and organizations which I have purchased from or used. These are websites I use on a semi regular basis and can vouch for all of them. I will be upfront, I…

This is my own recipe. This serves 4-6 people depending on portions. This will take about 10-15 minutes to prepare. I cook the rice while I am cooking up the TVP. Firm tofu can also be used instead of TVP if that is cheaper for you. I got all the main ingredients on sale aside…

Small touches of luxury for your visiting guests!
| July 26, 2010 | Posted by thefrugalvegan under Easy Ways to Make extra money |
As you know, I have a room listed on Airbnb.com. The price is very low since I like to host backpackers who might be uncomfortable using couchsurfing.org and prefer to pay a small price for a room as a way of bartering. When my guests arrive, I like to make them feel special, just as…
