After the last post about budget eating, Amber wanted to know my recipe for pancakes. Since this one doesn't contain eggs, it is about as frugal a pancake recipe as I can think of. I got it from Vegweb.com years ago. We make these ALL the time. We like to ...

A friend of mine recently lost a job. She sent me this question:
I am trying to cook with more fresh foods and less meat while we're jobless. Might you have any recipe or even quick and easy meal or side ideas that might suit our new budget?

Hey friends,
As you probably realize, I'm taking a break from my vegblog for now. A number of things have happened:
