Some stats (off topic)

In the new year - ketchup, baking soda, salt, and so much more! What CAN you use potatoes for? Stay tuned!



At the beginning of September, this blog was an assignment. Then it became an obligation. Now it has faded into a comfortable routine. "Oh, it's a new week! Time for a new blog!" If you read this blog, I encourage you to post a comment just to say hello. :)

This blog assignment came with a mandate of post lengths, which I'm pleased to say I fulfilled without conscious thought. Here are the final stats:

5 posts 50-200 words long:

1. Intro - 126

I won't count this post, or future posts, but expect this to remain a 'scrapbook' of the information I find pertinent to savings! Feel free to contribute your own tips!

And thank you for sharing the opening scenes of this adventure with me. :)

  1. Good job keeping track! I actually was really getting into blogging when we started this assignment, but I lost track when the workload started piling up. It'll get a nice re-boot in January, though.
