I was not always frugal. It took my husband being laid off to show us the beauty of economy, and although try as we might we still lost our freshly built dream house and were required to sell a vehicle to get by. It was as they say touch and go.
We dumped cable and never looked back.
In November of 2006 I was diagnosed with celiac disease. I was confused, relieved, and completely overwhelmed. Sound familiar.
I began craving simple comfort foods to help me through this transition. This purge of body and kitchen.
I found places that sold gluten-free products. Good or bad, they all had one thing in common: expense.
Therefor we embarked on a great journey of attempting to bake from scratch more often.
The new ingredients confused me, I was never much of a baker even before my diagnosis.
Hating to waste precious "exotic" flours these attempts grew less and less.
And then something occured. I got pregnant.
I was thrilled. I was also ill and full of cravings. This is when we discovered that my husband is a fantastic baker!
Wishing to help continue that trend I searched for bulk supplies.
My love of frugality led me to Honeyville Grains, and more importantly their brown rice flour in bulk.
