Welcome

Welcome to our old farmhouse. Over the past year I have learned so much history of this house and the people who lived here. Ninety six years of love, loss, hopes and dreams. Preservation continues and there is always a repair to be done. We are trying to be purest in our preservation as much as we possibly can. I hope you follow along and each week I will try to give you a little history of the house as well as the first owners of the house. I've been lucky enough to find a journal from a Granddaughter who talks about the house as well as her Grandparents. So come follow along and learn about this old house as well as the occupants, old and new.

Are You Brand Loyal?

 Are you brand loyal?
Do you coupon?
A little thing my oldest daughter got me into this summer.
I haven't gotten the extreme couponing down yet and I don't
think we need fifty toothbrushes. Some days I can can hit
50 to 90% off. I usually set aside a certain amount every
week, search the sale papers the Internet, grab my coupons
and have fun! Here is this weeks haul, total price $28.67,
paid $20.67 with tax, an $8.00 savings.
 As much as I love to decorate and change things
 around, we still have to do the dreaded, CLEANING!
Since I have two houses to stock this is actually a
hobby that is helpful. Not to mention I really can't
do any redecorating or changing at this time.
Tried these babies yet?
They are great!
I have the stainless look one already in my kitchen.
Soiled hands after handling meat, no problem and no mess
where you have touched a soap dispenser.
I scored this one for $7.00, but made out like a bandit on
my first one buy stacking  Dollar General coupon with a
manufacturer's coupon, paid $2.00 for my first one!
See you soon,
Sandy
Maybe someday I will show you my pitiful little stash!
