Hello and thank you for stopping by my blog. My name is April and I’m a Frugal wife and homeschooling mom, who loves cooking and baking for my family. While you wont find any gourmet recipes here, you WILL find yummy, down-home cooking, that is easy to prepare and taste great.

This blog also follows our family’s efforts to live a simple, frugal and self-sufficient life. This means getting organized, doing away with clutter, saving money, eliminating debt, and living off the land as much as possible.

Our Homesteading Goals

• To use and protect the natural resources that God has given us, while learning important life skills and passing them along to our children.
• Self-sufficiency-Not having to rely on big business, and living Off-Grid.
• Eating homegrown or locally produced, organic meats, fruits and vegetables.
• Increase the size of my garden and build a green house, until I can grow most of the fruits and vegetables my family needs year-round.

Our path to this lifestyle is a work in progress, and while we still have a long way to go we know we will succeed.
