Hello from Canada!
So I am new to the boards so I thought I would fill out one of the questionaires....

How did you hear about frugal village? I found it when I was doing a search for frugal recipes.
What interests you here? I am interested in so much of what's here! Especially recipes and ways to help keep costs down.
What will you contribute? As I'm pretty much just learning all of this I think my best contribution would be enthusiasm!
Do you know any other members here? Not yet
How many kids? Ages? I have a 14 yr old daughter and an almost 10 yr old son.
Tell us about yourself. My name is Sarah and I am a 35 yr old stay at home mom. I love learning new things and I'm always looking for new information to crowd my mind with.
I get that from my dad.
Do you own any pets? I have one cat named Baja. That's where I got my username and that is her in my avatar pic. She's the laziest cat ever but is super cute and cuddly.
Occupation? Stay at home mom
Married or single? Happily married for over 10 yrs.
Interests and hobbies? I love reading and usually have a few books on the go at any given time. I love playing cards with my mom and my sister whenever I have some spare time away from the family.
