This Frugal Family

I received two Amish Wisdom Journals, and they are amazing.  With every page, theres a new fact, and room to write in it, because after all it is a journal.  My daughter, age 21, took one journal, and my mom took the other.  They love their journals, and carry them everywhere. We love these journals, and my daughter keeps all of her homework, for college, written in hers.   And, my mom’s has her thoughts.  She’s getting older, and it’s good for her to write her thoughts down, especially while she’s getting so forgetful. Amish Wisdom is so amazing.  It enriches the journaling experience with sage advice for practical living.  This high-quality journ features expressive images, lined blank pages, and decorative end pages. Amish Wisdom from the Scriptures enriches the journaling experience with spiritual truths that convey the simple beloved proverbs that play a daily role in Amish speech, this beautiful lined journal offers insight into authentic “Pennsylvania Dutch” culture.

Quiet Fox journals make lovely gifts and are designed to suit every occasion, from jotting down daily…

Blu Notebook My daughter, 21, and husband, are arguing over who gets the amazing BluNotes notebook.  It’s this amazing graph paper, colored blue.  I love it too, but I usually let my family fight about who gets what products.  BluNotebooks are super cool, and Sarah wants to use it to draw her outfits for Cosplay.  Joe wants to use it for work.  So, between the two, I don’t know if I will give it to either.  I may just keep it, and use it myself. Sarah does draw very well, and I’d love to see her Cosplay outfits drawn on.  But, Joe would use it for work, where he’s a supervisor, but not in charge of the prints.  I think it will become Sarah’s Blu Notebook, so she can bring Cosplay to life. The BLU Notebook is the first ever sketching journal made from pages that have the look and feel of traditional blueprint paper (Without the smell of Ammonia!). BLU offers an aesthetically pleasing and soothing effect when using vibrantly pigmented white and coloured gel ink against the rich blue pages of BLU. The Pages of BLU Blue pages with a light blue grid 10:1” grid within a finer 2:1…

I’ve never been so excited about a product.  I’ve been wanting to try Once Upon a Book Club for a while, so when it came across my desk, I couldn’t refuse.  It’s so cool how you get an amazing book, and products for certain pages of the book.  This month’s box was fantastic.  I don’t read much, but I really got into it, and now my daughter, age 21, wants to borrow it.  I am super excited about this amazing product.  You can get 1 month for $35, or 3 months for $100, so save yourself some money and go for the 3 month subscription.  You won’t regret it. If you are an avid reader, you will love Once Upon a Book Club.  My daughter is borrowing this weekend, and she reads constantly.  She’s going to school to be a teacher, so she has to read a lot.  But, I’m sure she will love this as much as I do, and I’m not big into reading.  This was one of the most fantastic reviews that I’ve ever gotten to do though.  I was able to keep up, and understood what I was reading.  The book was so special to me. …
