Happy Lil Homemaker

So, I'm on this crazy new budgeting/pinch a penny til it bleeds thing (credit to my dad, whom I love dearly btw) and I've decided that my world should be a DIY paradise...not sure exactly where this is gonna go...so far I've decided to do as my mom used to do (way back in once upon a time land) and make home made bread all winter instead of buying it...and also meal planning...like a weekly menu or something...I'm open to suggestions :D
