The Your Money or Your Life Teleclass is rounding the bend into the final week and our “lesson” last week was resourcefulness. I prepared a list called “10 Ways to Skin a Cat” that merits a blog post.  I know, the image of “skinning cats” …

Oil Fat & Enough

Blessing the Hands that Feed Us / Food & Food Systems / Your Money or Your Life February 9, 2011 March 26, 2018 2 Comments

Saving for a rainy day – lessons from our ancestors

Your Money or Your Life October 8, 2010 October 8, 2010 5 Comments

A friend loaned me her parent’s budget books, one from 1940, one from 1974. They are a generation apart and reflect both simpler times and the evolution of our relationship with money to the confusing or even desperate situation we are in today. Joe Dominguez …
