Baby Chicks Video

I just posted my video of the new baby chicks that were hatched on Monday. They are so cute. This video was taken the day they were born. Leave a comment and let me know what you think. We have another batch started that will be ready in about three weeks.


Cousin Darlene's Frugal Living

Karen and I have a cousin who is all about frugal living. She does gardening, canning, raising chickens, bakes, and does homemade crafts. She was a stay at home wife and did what it took to help support her and her husband while he was at work. Now her husband is retired so they do the gardens and the chickens together.

They are in the midst of hatching out some spring chicks right now. If you want to see them, check out my other blog to see the Baby Chicks. They have hatched one batch and just started another batch.

Darlene has many talents in crafts and her house is an example of what you can do with a little imagination. She has bird feeders made of old coffee cans, Easter bunnies made from gloves, and many other cool crafty ideas. She also loves to share and is always dropping off something like a jar of pickles or a loaf of bread.

Here is a small video of what her basement storage area looks like. She spends a lot of time canning and I wanted to share it with my frugal friends.
