Cathy at Maternal Gardens has a through provoking blog today. I’ve paid close attention to Cathy’s entries because she’s accomplished so much in so little time. She is one very determined woman. When the idea of ducks came up the ground was frozen. Bill thought she should wait on the ducks until she could set fence posts. Frozen ground? Big deal. Cathy got the posts and sledge hammer and went to work. A few days later Cathy and Bill and their daughters were here to get ducks. Not long after that the first of the ducks were butchered and into the fridge. Soon after that all but four of the remaining dozen met the same fate. Her food bill is great.
Cathy’s light bill is great too. With a little effort she knocked $79 off the bill in one month.
If you’ve ever wondered how a family of six eats and lives very well with a stay-at-home mom and only one income, spend some time in Cathy’s blog.
