Living the good life on a budget.
Ten years of blogging, huh!? That’s correct – The Frugal Cottage turns 10 today. It’s such a weird thing; this is the longest I have stuck with anything – apart from learning to play the piano – ever. Something that started off as a small side line has turned into a huge passion of mine;…
Well, here it is! The last day of 2020. So it seems only right to do a reflection on the year as a whole. Hasn’t it been the strangest of years? No one could have predicted the year that we would have. It isn’t over in terms of the restrictions either 🙁 it just seems…
So, we’re getting towards to the end of 2020. It has been such a strange year and I know that lots of us will be glad to see it over. However, there are always things to be thankful for. So, in the spirit of looking back and reflecting on the year gone, I thought I’d…
Six years of blogging, huh!? That’s correct – The Frugal Cottage turned 6 on Monday. It’s such a weird thing; this is the longest I have stuck with anything – apart from learning to play the piano – ever. Something that started off as a small side line has turned into a huge passion of…
Well, here it is! The last day of 2019. So it seems only right to do a reflection on the year as a whole. It’s been quite a strange year, in some ways. 2019 saw us just navigate the world as a family of four. It saw our eldest start primary school and the youngest…
So, we’re getting towards to the end of 2019. By this time next week, Christmas will be over and it will be time to look ahead. So, in the spirit of looking back and reflecting on the year gone, I thought I’d share with you the most read posts here in 2019. 10. Should…
So, another year is over. And what a year it has been! The main change for us this year has been adapting to being a family of four, as Frugal Baby arrived at the end of 2017. Both boys have changed so much in 12 months and it’s lovely to see the bond between them…
How is it nearly the end of 2018 already? I feel like this has flown by. It has been another year of highs and lows, which mainly revolve around seeing my two beautiful boys grow; they already have such a special bond and I am so grateful for the life we have. Don’t get me…
Happy Birthday to The Frugal Cottage! I cannot believe I have managed to keep something going consistently for so long. The only other thing I’ve managed to do for this long other than blogging is learning the piano 🙂 I started this blog way back on 1st June 2014 and here we are, four years…
Another year, over! And another year older, though not necessarily wiser 😉 I’ll be honest, 2017 has been quite a tough year on us as a family, for various reasons. In most ways I’ll be glad to wave goodbye and hope that 2018 is better for us. Obviously, the best thing that happened to our…
