    Default Hi everyone!

    How did you hear about frugal village? I saw a link to Frugal Village on Facebook yesterday. It was listed by ChefTalk.com.

    What interests you here? I am always looking for more ways to save money on everyday living.

    What will you contribute? Whenever I have a helpful tip or suggestion, I would love to share it with others. I don't really have an area of expertise.

    Do you know any other members here? No

    How many kids? Ages? 11 yr old son who lives with me, 16, almost 17 year old daughter living with family in another state

    Tell us about yourself. I am a 37 year old woman and have recently moved from Indiana to Virginia. I enjoy meeting new people and making new friends. In addition to trying to learn new ways to save, I love to cook, read books (mostly novels), spend time with my family, and have been trying (unsuccessfully) for about a year to teach myself to crochet.

    Do you own any pets? Yes, I have a 4.5 year old shih tzu named Scooby.

    Occupation? stay at home mom

    Married or single? in a relationship

    Interests and hobbies? answered in the about myself.

    You made me feel better. Everyone tells me crochet is so easy and people have shown me different stitches but unless I'm actually using the stitches, I can't remember them 15 minutes after they're gone. Not to mention trying to read those patterns!

    Thanks for the welcomes! You are a friendly group!
