I am fortunate enough to be able to buy whatever food I'd like, but there were years when I learned to cook very cheap indeed. I followed a link to this blog, and was fascinated. I love food, I love cooking, and I like reading about the details of how things work. I will be sad when I get to the end of the 100 days reading. I don’t coupon.

I have become hooked. Right now I am basically surviving off of food banks, I go there for what ever is available and then try to come up with ways to spend the least amount as possible. My husband and I were both laid off last year. He has since found work (making A LOT less money). We have two small children 5 and 7 both boys who eat a lot. You have really been giving me hope. The food pantries around here don't have a lot of personal hygiene items and I sometimes we run out of needed items. While I always make do and can really stretch our budget sometimes I get so stressed out that I cry. I have been couponing the wrong way and am going to start trying your way. I enjoy your blog very much. I'm trying to catch up I just found it yesterday (my farm on fv has probably withered by now lol). Thank you for all that you do for your local food bank. With these hard times I don't know where my family would be with out the two that I am able to go to. I hope that you don't stop this challenge. That you can keep it going.

That being said, it does take patience and a lot of stop-go to get it to that consistency @Maggie

Whatever blender happens to be at the place I’m staying – most appear to be older models and nothing fancy. That being said, it does take patience and a lot of stop-go to get it to that consistency

I'm curious as to which type of blender you use? Your smoothies always look perfectly blended! I tried the peanut butter/banana ice cream today, and while the parts that did blend turned out delicious, it was mostly a lumpy frozen mess.

When I decided that I wanted to make blogging my full time job, I actually was working full time. I would work a full day, come home and blog / create content for another 6 - 8 hours so it was basically like having two full time jobs. I did this for 2 years before I made a single penny from the blogging. Anyone that tells you making a full time income blogging is easy has no idea what they are talking about ;) The good part is now all the hard work has been done. I am basically free to pick the type of blogging projects I want like this and Penny Experiment without having to worry too much about whether they are financially successful or not. Was it worth it? Most definitley. Was it easy? Far from it... I would LOVE to know how to make money at blogging and running website.
