Just popping on to wish you and your family happy Easter, if you celebrate it. We’re spending the day with Mr FC’s family, which includes doing a little Easter egg hunt for Frugal Toddler. I cannot wait 🙂 April aims up tomorrow! xx
Happy Easter
March 2018: A Month In Review
It’s the end of March already – how can that be?! This year is absolutely flying by so far. I can’t believe that we’re almost at the start of the fourth month already. Frugal Baby is nearly 16 weeks (!) old and thriving. Frugal Toddler is changing and growing each week as he learns more…
The April Cash Challenge
I mentioned during February that I was struggling with our finances a bit. Being at home all of the time isn’t helping that, I am sure. March so far seems to be going much better; I feel much more in control and positive about our spending habits. But, that can change so quickly. And because…
Starting A Small Business
When I first started The Frugal Cottage I intended it to just be a blog about how to save money. I quickly realised that it could be so much more than that; I could perhaps create a small online business that would supplement our income. Something that would run along side our day jobs. But starting…
The Weekend Edition #72
Happy Sunday! Have you remembered to put your clocks forward this weekend? 🙂 You lose an hour when the clocks go forward but as a parent you don’t even notice now. Oh well! This week has been very up and down; I did a photoshoot on Thursday with Mr FC and the boys for…
8 Free Things To Do At The Weekend
Weekends are a time for slowing down, savouring the time available and spending time with loved ones. There was a time where I thought weekends were all about spending money, going out and wasting the hours. I used to spend a fortune by just going into town on a Saturday, wandering about the shops and…
The Weekend Edition #71
Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you’re having a lovely day, whatever you are doing. I haven’t done a weekend edition post in ages, but thought I would this week. This week has been fairly quiet for us as a family; Mr FC has been at work and I’ve just been at home. The weather has…
Bacon, Pea and Mushroom Risotto – Slimming World
One of my 2018 goals is to lose my pregnancy weight, so at the beginning of the year I joined Slimming World. I did the plan after having Frugal Toddler, and so am doing the same thing after Frugal Baby arrived. The plan works if you stick to it – I lost 5lbs this week…
Why Aren’t More Women Investing?
As it’s International Women’s Day this week, I thought I’d write a post in relation to that. Specifically, women and investing. Now, I don’t claim to be an expert at investing. Far from it. I started dividend investing two years ago, but before that I had no idea about the world of investing. It…
Dividend Income February 2018
Another dividend income report time! I truly enjoy writing these and reflecting on how the numbers are looking. I am so excited to see what the numbers add up to at the end of this year. However, shares have been particularly rocky this past few days, so it’s always a bit tough to see the…
