I wanted to share a great frugality list I've found on Yahoogroups. It's called Budget 101, the page for the list can be found here. There also is a website at Budget 101. The focus of the list is cooking from scratch, making your own cleaning supplies, and stocking your pantry. This weekend I made food gift baskets as Christmas gifts for my sisters using recipes I found on this list. I made Minestrone Soup mix in a jar, California Corn Bread mix in a jar, and Applesauce Spice cake baked in a jar.

Sounds great Sherri, I need to make up a gift for my husband's brother and his wife, this sounds like a good idea.

Spent my lunch break here, lots of neat ideas, especially for one who has not started Christmas shopping yet. Polly
